It’s been a couple of no good, rotten days. I decided that a little art therapy was in order.
I was starting to clear off my workspace when I noticed a paint splattered, stamped and ink stained piece of paper. I decided this should be the base of my journal page. It was a bit of a metaphor for me….turning something ugly and messy around.
As I was creating I was jotting down words on the page…feelings…thoughts…
A mind dump.
The amazing thing is that it helped. I covered my words as now that I’ve dumped them, it was time to make a fresh start. A better day. In the end…It’s a wonderful world….we just need to remember to look for the good and not dwell in the crap.
I’m linking up with Art Journal Journey again for the Autumn theme.
Beautiful page, so kind of you to link to us again at Art Journal Journey! Hugs, Valerie
First: Your page is wonderful, adorable…!!
Everything fits and there is a great expression.
And: I had a black or rotten day today, too And in the evening I started to paint, first with black and grey 🙂 and now it’s very colorful
for the same reason you told above…
Ciao Beo
A great page, Wow! I like the flowers so much and the words too. Very good designed page.
Dear Greetings

What a fantastic page Halle. I love how you made those flowers just pop right off the page. Sorry your last few days haven’t been so great, but your page certainly doesn’t show that. Hope it improves. Hugs-Erika
Impressive. I know others who hide their words using beautiful art, so this was truly a feelings dump that turned into gorgeous art. Super impressed with how this turned out.
It’s amazing that bad days can bring such beautiful art – I nearly want to say – I wish you more bad days — NOOOO —
I wish you wonderful days Halle – I think you create fantastic art on bad as well as on good days.. and yes – we should look out for all the wonders around us.. that helps so much when we feel sad or bad !
Thank you for such a grea entry to Art Journal Journey Halle!
Happy weekend to you!
It is the best way to make bad days into good days! Paint over it again and again. Your result shows us the way! Very beautiful colors and the 3D-flowers are gorgeous!
It’s not just a wonderful world, it’s a wonderful page too! I love the texture you have created in the background and those beautiful flowers – wow! I love it! Wishing you a happy Friday and weekend! J 🙂
I like the way you shaped the flower. They look just like flowers I have on my patio right now 🙂
All around wonderful Halle!
Art Heals!
