Weekend post

Hi Everybody!

Thanks again for all the good wishes. I am having a quiet and restful weekend, reading, listening to music and audio books, and in general trying to keep cool during these 'dog days'. 

I have another A3 journal page, made on a loose page, so I was able to sew the edges. the background was gessoed and painted before I collaged lots of napkin scraps and stenciled a dragonfly, I am linking to Simon Monday Challenge, art journaling, and to Paperbabe stamps, summer:

And some more photos from the farm, where they also have a wonderful collection of old farm implements and toys, which I will show another day:

Have a great weekend, take care, 

and thanks a lot for coming by!

Spills and splatters

Hi Everybody!

Thanks for all the good wishes. The dental Op went well, it wasn't exactly the  pleasantest 2 hours I've spent, but the ladies of the team there are fantastic and do their work really well. I have to take antibiotics, and the second part will be done in the middle of August when it's healed up.

Today I'm sharing a frustration piece I made after spilling paint on a gessoed A3 page in my journal. I just carried on with drips and drops,  and added the  Banksy girl,  balloon and text with  stencils. I am linking to Erika's 'when it's hot' theme at AJJ , to simon Monday challenge - art journal, and to paint party Friday

Here I reversed the colours, just for fun:

And for Pinky's 'Christmas' theme at Tag Tuesday I have another tag:

And some photos from a visit to a farm in a neighbouring town:

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
