july and august art journal pages

whew...

finally...

I am caught up with

my journal pages, it seems I was

a month and half behind ever since the move...

July detail below....

lots of gardening and landscaping going on here physically

and mentally it seems...

my writing is well below the surface... lots of layers here...

ingredients: acrylic paint, glaze, transfers on paper, pen and ink, collage, colored pencil

and

August....

a bit slower ... especially these last few weeks

the weather is cooler and I have been stitching on my collab with Kim

Wandering Heart Studio

don't expect anything soon though...

I stitch by hand you know....

since I was already in the threads...

I decided to journal write on muslin

and then stitch upon that ....

it took a while, but ...

it worked out quite well...

ingredients: muslin, paper ephemera, thread, transfers on canvas, sari ribbons, watercolor pencils, antique lace

the two page spread above...

alright back to the studio...

and in case you did not join us for tea,

you might want to go here to see a little peek

ciao, gentle readers...
