I was out most of the day with my friend, so it was nice to settle down to some crafting when I got back home. But I do need a better light in my kitchen; the nights are drawing in now, so I will have to arrange something that's good to paint and craft by. That will be my next priority. I made another spread for my journal, using a blended paper background, gesso and some black and white elements. It was fun to make, but for tomorrow I will make something with colour again; I feel that I need it just now. I am linking again to the Art Every Day challenge
Hope you all have a good day. Take care, and thanks a lot for visiting!
Love the black and white pages, too! The quote is so good, something we all need to remember! Have a good day, hugs, Sarah

ReplyDeleteHi Valerie. You sound good and happy. I loved what you said about, "The nights are drawing in now." I like the way that sounds. You mean it's getting darker earlier, right? That's what I took it to mean, but I love it and your work as usual. Thanks for sharing. Have a great rest of the week, take care.
ReplyDeleteSuper journal page, the words go well with your collage.
