Ghostly art journal entry
I have had a hard time (for various life related reasons) finding time to work (play!!) in my studio. At CheapJoes I purchased 2 9x12 Visual Art journal journals. I like these -they hold up to wet media well and are not expensive. So - time to start work/play! This page (ghost horse) combines various things I don't normally take time to do. First - created a mixed media layered background over a couple of days. I am the queen of impatience and so it's hard for me to create this kind of layered background. Then I looked to see what the layers contained - saw a horse but wanted to try drawing from memory. Two skills - drawing and drawing from memory! I added the ghost horse lettering and a fabric paper heart that's been lying on my work table for months. I'm satisfied with what I've done - not because it's fabulous but because it's not and wasn't meant to be. Maybe - if I live long enough - I will someday create fabulous work. For now - I will just create. Thanks for stopping by - let me know what you think!
