Wanderlust latest!

Oh I'm loving this year long online class! It is full of great videos, great teachers, wonderful art and brilliant opportunities to respond to so many creative ideas and challenges. Here are some photos of  what I've been up to in my art journal responding to the various challenges we've been offered.

This spread was in response to a challenge where we were asked to use a word that sums up where we feel we are at this moment in our lives/creative journeys. The word I chose is: Love. Because I 

really love my life at the moment. I am so lucky to have a beautiful family who I love so much and

who love me! I am also loving the opportunities that retirement has given me to pursue my creative journey. I love my life. I am truly blessed.

The following photos are my response to the second 'prompt' we were given. We were simply given the phrase: 'What I want...'  This is my response. I am very inspired by the work of Deb Weiers which I've already mentioned. That inspiration continues! Hope you like it. I'm pleased that I'm learning to leave white space! A difficult lesson to learn for me! 

This spread started life like this:

I'm having great fun playing around with Winsor and Newton drawing inks, which is what I've used here. I'm also playing with: Aladine pigment Izinks. Gorgeous, rich colours. I first saw them and bought them at Version Scrap in Paris. Hope you like what I've done and would love you to leave a comment to show you passed by! Have a great weekend xxx
