Blue, Green and Yellow

Hello All--hope your day is going well.

Vic took some wonderful photos in our garden yesterday so I thought I would share 3 of them with you. They do say that bees are in short supplies these days but our garden is full of them and they are so beautiful-this one was in and out of every flower on the pink foxglove.






I was up early so had a go at the Craft Room Challenge where the theme this time is to only use yellow, blue or green to make something. Wasn't sure if black and white could be used so I just stuck to the three.

I cut a piece of card 4x6 inches and painted it with acrylic in the three colours. Then I took a few pens in the colours and did some fantasy artwork. It is fun to just let your imagination run riot sometimes.

Love Chrissie x

    Your photos are brilliant! They're great shots of the bee, and a beautiful Foxglove - as much as I really love flowers, my fingers aren't very green and I don't do them any favours at all. A fabulous postcard, I love the bright shades you've used, and it is great to just sit down and do whatever comes to mind. Thank you for sharing with us in our colour challenge this fortnight Chrissie.

    Take care

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery. We had gone there to see the wonderful Rodin sculpture 'The Kiss' which graced the entrance to the Gallery. Then we strayed into the next part and a whole wall was covered in dots. It didn't look like art to
