Art Journaling

Truly not sure what I am getting myself into, however I want to push myself outside of my comfort zone.  So here goes.

I started out by picking a colour I would not normally use, a dark green. Then I started layering and seeing what else would peek my fancy to use and by the end I had a page created.  I see a lot more creating in my future.

You all remember tole painting (no clue at the moment how to spell that).  Well I think I purchased just about every colour Delta Ceramcoat came out with.  When I moved in 2006 I had already moved on to scrapbooking and left all of my paint and brushes behind.  A few weeks ago my mom came for a visit and brought me 96 bottles of those paints.  Yup 96...

I found myself looking through the colours tonight, rediscovering all of my brushes and the small joys of having all of those colours.  Remember when you were a kid and you finally got the big box of crayons,  so much fun.
