I wish I had a time lapse of this journal page. It went through many different stages and colors before arriving at the finished product. This definitely made the background rich and with great depth.
The words were an afterthought…but they fit just perfectly to me. When I rip pages out of my journals to reduce bulk, I often look for phrases that speak to me. I cut them out and save them for a future project. I never pick the words beforehand….always after I have set the paintbrush down.
Whenever I go outside to photograph my art for the blog I have an assistant who likes to tag along.
She really isn’t much help. In fact, she is usually a distraction as I must keep one eye on her so she doesn’t get into trouble.
It usually works out best when she finds a nice sunny spot to get her daily dose of vitamin D.
Oh, the life of a spoiled cat.
