Can you imagine a summer without colour?..........I can't
What if the summer flowers we love had no colour at all...
I think colour can brighten anyone's day, don't you.
This is a hybrid, mixed media page for
where Bleubeard and Elizabeths
great theme is Summer Love.
On the left is how this page began. The first layers are a colourful background , a layer of checked tissue in the top corner. A fussy cut lady from the same paper stack..
Some Washie tape and scraps of a printed ribbon.
I used some Jane Davenport items I purchased on holiday.
However this didn't stop me from altering it in my digital program as you can see in my first photo.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope you are loving summer like I am..
Without color the summer, no that does not work !!!! So I love your colored journal that is wonderful!

Stunning use of tissues and washi tape. It's truly lovely and colorful, too. What started as a lovely piece (I'm in awe of the fussy cut woman) turned into a masterpiece. I really fell in love with the question you posed about colorless flowers. It got me thinking how bright and powerful this piece really is. Thanks for sharing it on Art Journal Journey. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous and indeed colourful page Yvonne! Wish we had a bit more colour in our summer, - right now there is nothing but grey skies and rain...
ReplyDeleteWow, so schön! Tolle Farben.
