april journal pages



ciao, gentle readers...

it was a long journey but
I am finally home
and settling in
despite the serious rain...







and as I promised you before I left...
I have my april journal pages
here
a lot behind, I know
but I have been slightly
preoccupied...
so I hope you will forgive me..


click on images for details


the full spread is below
been nesting...
as you know
and still working on pieces for my show,
which will be in my next post...





using my journal pages as my rough sketches for
my show pieces has been wonderful...
they are like a silent confidante
holding close my ideas as they mature...

ingredients this month: acrylic paint, antique ephemera, pen, pencil, colored pencil, walnut inks, tissue papers, china marker, paper shred, transfer on papers...

it is so nice to be blogging again
I missed you all..
I will be off to visit your blogs shortly...

oh ... and I have a new post at
if you want to see my new back yard and
soon to be ... garden...
ciao, ciao...
