Now, it's time to reveal my
'blue'
piece for
Kristin's
Challenge
...I had a little play last week
..and had a lot of fun creating a little mixed media journal page for our first colour challenge.
and here is the result...
First of all I raided my stash for blue pens, pencils, paint etc...Then decided to start a little mixed media journal.
The face was inspired by Tam's ' Art, heart and Healing Course' that I did last year.
(Deets in my sidebar)
I used a paper collage for the background,
acyrlic paints, pens, pencils, inks
and various rubber stamps to create my journal pages.
..and found this apt little colour quote to add to it.
-oOo-
I am going to try my best to join in each week creating with colour !
Looking forward to seeing all the other arty blueness
...and next weeks colour !
Thanks for Looking!

Love all those blues too, of course!
