Journal Page

Hi All. Apologies for lack of visits to your blogs but life has rather got in the way just at the moment. Thank you for calling in and for your lovely comments.

Today I have two journal pages for Art Journal Journey where I am hosting a Winter Wonderland theme. Still almost 5 days left if you want to join in with us. I had these pages ready made so thought I would post them today just in case I haven't time again before the end of the challenge.

This is the back  of an old calendar, I got this idea from Susi. I painted it in white acrylic then drew in charcoal and used more acrylic for the images and the sky.


This is a digital page though I used a stamped image for the centre piece and altered it a little.

Have a good day all

Love Chrissie xx

    Beautiful Chrissie!! All your gorgeous winter wonderland pieces are making me long for snow even more. We still have not a flake in sight...and I'm in Canada, so that's especially strange! hugs :)

    Great texture from the paint and charcoal - and the windswept sky is particularly beautiful. Lovely digi page too - really capturing the sparkle of a snowy winter's night.

    No need to apologise about visiting - I'd far rather you spent any spare time you have taking care of yourself or finding some time at the craft table - whatever you need to do to get through what life is throwing at you. Hugs to you.

    Both pieces are really lovely Chrissie!
    Everyone is having such a great time with your Winter Wonderland theme with me included.
    We are knee deep in snow here in Virginia so I was a bit distracted for a long weekend of digging out.
    Sending all good wishes your way.

    I'm running behind since I was out all day and evening. I can appreciate how life gets in the way of computer time. I hope you are feeling better soon.

    These are both stunning, but I'm a big fan of trees, so you probably know the one I like best. I also like the texture you got on the one with the trees. But of course, since I'm no good with digital, that one also impressed me.

    Feel better soon.

    What fun and beautiful projects. Love the sentiment on the first one and all the texture you've achieved, very creative ideas.

    I love both of these Chrissie - I love how someone has cleared the snow from the path to the house - what a great little detail to add! Your digital page is such a lovely dramatic scene! Hugs, Chrisx

Tag and Journal page design

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 ...
