Hi Everybody!
Hope you are all having a great weekend.
I am a bit late with my blog today, as I had a hectic time yesterday with visits to the doctor and the hospital, and was just completely exhausted after it all.
For Art Journal Journey, 'Birds Beasts and Animals', I have another rather chaotic collage with a bit of everything to share. The background was an A3 brushwipe page with added colour. I had visitors last weekend, and needed to clear the table, so everything I found on it landed here on this journal page. I added some stenciling using stencils from Dina Wakley, CWS and home made, as well as some doodling. This was fun to make!

The weather is cold and clear today, and we had a great dawn and sunrise:
The early morning sun shone onto my tulips in their vase and made these wonderful shadows:
And my shadow went down to the Rhine this morning:
Have a great day you all, take care, and thanks for coming by! And please don't leave things on the floor where you might be tempted to fall over them, too!
Hi Val, just saw that you had posted! Love your jazzy collage and the wonderful photos. Take care of yourself and give yourself time to heal! Hugs, Sarah

Your art page is great, particularly like the butterfly lady. The photography is breathtaking, thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous collage and photos!
ReplyDeleteLove the shadows of the tulips, once you start seeing shadows you see them lots of places.
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting way to make a collage and a great result, I can't imagine how you managed to get all these images on there, lots of fussy cutting perhaps? I've gone back to look at it three times and it would make a super conversation piece if it was hanging on your wall.
I am always fascinated by shadows.
DeleteYes, they are shadows of a real thing but can look quite different, maybe because they are 2-dimensional versions and often distorted in an attractive way.
DeleteSo much to look at in your collage Valerie, I love it. Beautiful photos of sunrise and shadows! Hope your hand is feeling better. Xx
ReplyDeleteThis is a really fun piece Valerie, you can tell that you had fun making it. I hope you're feeling better now xx
ReplyDeleteAmazing Valerie love all the elements you've added - thanks for sharing your wonderful photos again today
ReplyDeleteLovely collage, beautiful sunrise. Glad you got the medical appointments done.
ReplyDeleteLove your awesome, pile it on collage. So many things to look at. Super photos and shadows today.
ReplyDeletetake things easy and get well soon.

ReplyDeleteI like the quote you used for this one and especially like the dress the flower pot lady is wearing! I do hope your hand/ribs are not broken! I usually don't need anything under foot to trip, LOL.
ReplyDeleteMy hand and ribs are just bruised but the collarbone is broken!

ReplyDeleteSo hoping that they found nothing serious at the hospital and that you just need more time to heal .. Love the journal pages ♥
ReplyDeleteI love that you used "everything you found on the table" in your collage. It is so lovely to have memories like that tied into your art.
ReplyDeleteYour photography is always enjoyable, but I these shadow photos are absolutely delightful.
I hope you have nothing too serious going on with your health.
Blessing hugs,
Teresa

What!?! Your collar bone is broken?! Even bruised ribs can be quite painful!
ReplyDeleteIt does look like you had fun with this collage. So much to look at and I was really surprised to see Venus!
It is going to take a while to heal but I suspect t you know that. I am so n sorry Valerie.
