Mid Week Mix

Hi Everybody!

For Art Journal Journey, nature's wonders, I have a quick journal page
made with an altered photo and some silhouettes.

Watching the sun rise is a new wonder for me each and every day:




And this is the tag I made for Tag Tuesday this week, where our theme
is 'Celebrations' - I decided to celebrate life using one of Niki de Saint Phalle's Nanas:


This is one of her statues that stands in Hanover:



And here the 'daily wonder' from yesterday:




Have  a great day you all, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  5. Beautiful page Valerie and that's such a lovely quote.
    Happy tag - love that too. I've not heard of that artist before, the statue is also such a happy piece - I must remember to investigate her further.

  15. I love your silhouettes. Are they doing yoga? But I'm with you, sunrise and sunset are natures wonders. And I think the Nana's are fabulous. I have never heard of Niki de Saint Phalles, but I love learning new things and about people. Hope your week is going well. Hugs-Erika

  20. Your post makes me want to celebrate too! What with your beautiful silhouette sun rise page, celebrating life tag and lovely photos. Thank you! J :-)

  21. Wow, your silhouette page is wonderful. I can feel the energy it exudes.

    The tag using a stencil reminiscent of Niki de Saint Phalle is wonderful. Her curvaceous sculptures are known by sight, but the one you showed from Hanover is, in my opinion, abstract compared to most of her Nanas.

  22. Sunrise and sunset are each gifts we get every day for free...just for showing up!
    Lovely silhouette page makes me think of the yoga "salute to the sun" posture.
    Your tag is beautifully inspired and so full of life.
