cold grey day in November. a tad gloomy outside. a bit sad inside, so i needed to do some quick happy art to keep moving forward.
yes, a little sad, but it's ok, it's a bittersweet kind of sad, satisfyingly peaceful, pure and good.
so i did a quick 2-page layout in my art journal.
first i gathered up some motivating images and phrases i'd cut out from magazines awhile back.
i got out my paints and chose ocean-y turquoise for the background, stamped on a wavy pattern in teal...
.and just for fun..some fiery red circles printed by dipping a jar lid in red paint.
there. background complete. now the hard part:
waiting for the paint to dry.
a little break with some warm chai tea helps...
Time to glue on the images and words.
I love doing this...
...doing this while listening to Christian worship music always helps me too...
soon the day becomes less gloomy.
and i like that.
