Hi Everybody!
Today is the last day of our 'Maps' challenge at Art Journal Journey.
Thanks to Mary who was our hostess this month.
I have one more piece to show today. I placed a drawing made by Stik (a street artist) on a house in Bristol - he likes to paint around windows and doors - onto an antique map of Bristol (courtesy of Wikipedia). I like the contrast between ancient and modern.
And I made my usual collage of pieces this month:
Tomorrow our new challenge will be starting, so if you want to know who our hostess is and what her theme is, come back tomorrow and look - I know it will be a good month!
Today we actually had a lovely sunrise again. It didn't stay that nice all day, we had a lot of wind and clouds, but it did feel something like a sort of summer day, and it didn't rain!
And my quote today:
'For God makes his sun rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust' (Matthew 5)
Have a great day you all, take care
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Love the map page Valerie and Mr Stick Man looks so cool!

Wonderful Stik page and a gorgeous collage as always. We lived in Bristol when we first got married! Beautiful photos, too. Hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteFantastic page Valerie what great graffiti. Can't wait for the new theme at AJJ
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunset photographs hope the sun shone all day. We have had rain all afternoon but sun now
Love Chrissie xx
Love the art by Stik around the window! Stunning sunrise and wonderful collage for the month too.
ReplyDeleteStik is an artist I had not heard of, but I like his work and love how you showed it digitally. Of course, I always love your end-of-the-month collage. My favorite is still "Where do I belong." It is so poignant.
ReplyDeleteIt's been sticky hot here today. I was going to clean my front porch in preparation of company, but it got too hot by the time I woke. I'd gladly give you some of my heat and humidity and nearly cloudless day. Hope yours stays dry, too.
I love this page - a great combination! Your sunrise photos are fabulous! Chrisx
ReplyDeleteLove the page you created today Valerie, the Stik image is so cute. Its a fantastic collage of your art for the month as well. Beautiful sunrise photos, we have had rain most of the day, so no changes here.

Noch nie gehört ovn diesem Künstler - klasse Seite und eine tolle Monatscollage nebst fablehaften Fotos - auch wenn es schade ist dass Du immer so früh wach sein musst - die Fotos vom Sonnenaufgang sind toll.
ReplyDeleteSchönen Donnerstag
Liebe Grüße

I had not heard of Stik either - however love street art and appreciate his work. You have put it together very creatively with the antique map background. Always enjoy your month end collage. Such beautiful shots of the sunrise (finally) -- hope it lasts. hugs, Donna
ReplyDeleteI love your page with the Stik image and your sunrise photos are wonderful.

ReplyDeleteOoooooh, I wonder what???? Thanks!
DeleteLove the contrast of modern and old. Really cool street art! Glad you didn't get and rain-big smile- and as always, I LOVE your end of the month collage. But I can't believe its Jun 30 already. No way. It can't be. Hope its a great day so far. Hugs-Eriika
ReplyDeleteyes, time flies quicker from day to day....
DeleteI don't know what I love most in this post -- the glorious sunrise or your fabulous collage of the work of the month. I'm going to have to remember that idea. It's a terrific way to synthesize all you have been doing!

ReplyDeleteHi Valerie
ReplyDeleteI've not gone missing again just catching up now after sorting out new pc and its teething probs ha ha :)
Really love your 'Stik' art piece - I have a book about graffiti art and Bristol is one of those places they actually have Graffiti festivals - would love to see that!
Hope you're have a good weekend
