April Art Journal Pages




Ciao, dear readers..
I have finally finished my
April 
pages..




April Art Journal Pages





and I love how this works, 
I start with
 an idea in mind for my pages..




April Art Journal Pages



and my idea was that 
I was struggling with the garden..
with critters eating everything..
or 
digging them up..
or knocking them over..


just your basic attachment issue
for any gardener..

eventually I realized that I had to let it all go..
and just find a sense of peace..

 I settled on 
an image from a book
and I decided to try drawing on antique tissue paper
which was very interesting
and lead to its own challenges..


and 
when I finished
papering the pages, 
I saw that it was from a copy of

War and Peace..

of course it was..

Ingredients: Antique paper ephemera, black wing pencil, antique image


This is probably one of my simplest spreads
and yet it is one of my
 favorites..

Sending my kindest wishes to you all
for a healthy and happy week.
