This is the first time in ages I have felt like doing something in my art journal.
As usual it started out to be something entirely different!
I was working on the theme from Art Journal of dreams or wishes and this happened!
But I am pleased with it as I am not an artist at all!
Says you 'I know' lol.
I started by covering my page in a decoupage finish to stick down a paper towel
as I wanted some texture.
From that I just went mad with my inks and somehow ended up with a country scene.
I used gold thread along each of the hills but it's hard to see on here.
I added some fencing using my blend pens.
Stamped some trees and added leaves using my blends again.
Then I thought it needed some animals so I drew the sheep heads and
added the bodies by dipping a bud into gesso and dotting it on.
Then came the horse, or is it a donkey, or is it a giraffe lol.
As I say I am not an artist but I did have fun drawing him.
I finally stamped some grass in the lower field and that was me done.
I seriously had to walk away!!
But I will look at this page on a dull dark winter's day and dream
of being out for a lovely walk in the countryside.

ReplyDeleteThis is just gorgeous Pinky.xxx
ReplyDeleteyou created a wonderful scene so much detail and texture, beautiful make
ReplyDeleteThis is a great page... it makes me want to set out on a country walk right now. Sadly there's not much countryside in easy reach (there will be once I've moved next year!). I love how the greens shift and change from hill to hill and how the trees are just on the turn to autumn colours. Delightful.
