Why do it today...

When I can do it tomorrow.... is the mood I've been finding myself in.  I start something and then don't finish it.  Have done a gazillion backgrounds in my journal it seems but then sit and stare at them for ages waiting for inspiration to strike...or not!!  So the answer...... forget them and doodle....just because it looks pretty and doesn't need anything else.  Food for the soul... lots of grown up colouring in lol.

So here are the results.... loving florals...

and crazy shapes....

and a hiding pig...can you see him above.

Loving colour and letting it flow...

 then I can just stop and enjoy cos they make me happy as they are and I don't need the pages to do anything else but look pretty and maybe inspire me to do something else when I'm feeling stuck.

The mojo has returned...

and this is the fairy who brought it back.  I thoroughly enjoyed doing this art journal page and I've been inking, painting, doodling and drawing ever since I completed it yeehaaaa.  So lots to share with you over the coming weeks... this is the beginning of what I hope will  be a long and fruitful arty spell.

The background was created with Dylusions spray inks which are totally lush and so easy to use.

I then used some gesso as a base for my fairy's face, arms and wings before adding acrylic paint.

I am loving re-using my Sakura pens for doodling and water colouring... they are so adaptable and oh so pretty.  Love the sparkle and shine.

See you soon
