I have not been very arty at all lately, things have been really full on at home and the sheer size of all that is going on has been overwhelming and all the while this little beauty has been quietly beckoning to me from my self. The picture above is the tittle page Roz made in he journal, the whole journal is a delight.
Initially I was playing around with an idea for something clean and simple and sophisticated, I wanted to use paper and pattern and I started this page and it just sat there for a while until I finally added the fan.
In the mean time I had an idea about an Asian sunset,
so I played with dylusion sprays for the background and a simple ink drawing, and then the ideas were really flowing so I did a third page.
Playing with suggested textures here , I was after the feeling of languishing in luxury, silks and velvets, precious metals and succulent fruit.
So I have added an extra page into your journal Roz and I hope you like them.
They're wonderful Louise! I'm always amazed at how tough we can be on ourselves whenever we have to tend to life's "necessaries". I think the fact that you managed to get all this art done in spite of anything going on in the "real" world is amazing :)) <3
