Out of the cold and into the warm


This is a hybrid/mixed media journal page for 
theme.......... 101 Ways to Keep Warm....  over at


The base was coloured with white gesso, and water colours, there is a magazine page first of all, but this ended up being completely covered.






Some stencils came next and after they dried out I rubbed on a little gilding wax.
Over to the digital program I used 
I started adding  a winter scene and remembered to save you a peek at this stage. 
Its been so frosty here in the mornings , clean and crisp to get out and enjoy a walk.  But best of all. it  made me think of the pleasurable feeling you get when you actually turn around and go back home to the warm.

Thank you for calling in today, you are always welcome here
 and the comments you leave for me are always appreciated.

  7. It's always amazing to me how you start with one idea and end up with such a fabulous page. I am always so in awe of your digital and hybrid art. The way you create this, building layer after layer of digital art, simply amazes me. I am really SO impressed, and I absolutely adore your take on Chris's AJJ theme.

  13. Loved seeing the "half-way", a great illustration in itself, the frosty wood, but what you have added really transforms it. It's a lovely thought going from the cold snow into this pretty warm house.
