Hi Everyone.
I have another page to share for the Gratitude Junk Journal course, and the theme for this one is a quote.
'Be grateful not only for others, but also for yourself.'
I laid down some collage, then scraped light blue acrylic over it, then I painted the woman hugging herself, and added some Autumn leafy vines around her. I stamped the quote using alphabet stamps, and finished with some paint splashes. I really wish I could draw hands! 😁
I'm linking my page to Leah's Art Every Day Month challenge, Day 7, and also to Chris' All Kinds of Weather theme at Art Journal Journey.
I hope you've had a lovely weekend,
Thanks for visiting,
Alison
I love this girl and the sentiment. It is sometimes difficult to feel grateful for oneself.
ReplyDeleteA nice piece. A bit dreamy and I like that :)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you. Hands are so difficult to get correctly, but these do look wonderful. This is a pretty piece and perfect for Chris' challenge at AJJ also. I love the idea behind the quote too. Have a great start to the new week. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI really wish I could draw, period! You did an excellent job with the woman. She turned out great and I absolutely adore how you created her. She sure has heart. The quote is brilliant and true. The leaf vines make the page perfect with the contrasting colors. It also is great for Chris's theme at Art Journal Journey. A great drawing today, and a nice bit of gratitude, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat drawing and quote, this is so pretty! xoxo
ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous page, Alison. Love how you painted the lady, and the quote is so true. Thanks for joining us at AJJ, much appreciated! Have a great, new week, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteFabulous journal page and love the woman you drew-I just wish I could draw!

Love your page Alison, and your girl. Hands are hard aren't they? I did a class once where you had to draw your own hand in various ways and that wasn't so bad but then when it came to drawing other people's hands, it was a big fail lol. Happy AEDM Elle/EOTC xx
ReplyDeleteOh Alison, she's beautiful. I love the quote! Thank you for joining us again at AJJ, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteWow, this is soooooo sweet and pretty. Great drawing, mood reflection, and words. Another fab creation.
