The sky may be blue, but there is rain in the air and the wind is blowing a gale.
That sounds like a weather report, but although we like the warm and the sun,
we get a good share of the wind and rain as well.
The background was created by rubbing nearly dried out ink pads over the surface.
The tree and man holding on to his umbrella are Clarity stamps that I have had for years,
they deserved an airing.
they deserved an airing.
The grass stamp is old and unnamed as is the one I used for the rain drops. So huge they could have been water bombs not drops. The words were computer generated and to cover some of the messier rain drops I added some clouds in the digital program I use.

this is very windy and very beautiful page.
ReplyDeleteI am really glad you decided to give those stamps an airing. I hadn't thought of the wind as a way to portray the challenge, and just LOVE it. This is such a cool page! The wind is scary but also interesting, and that man with his blown out umbrella is a great stamp! Thanks so much for your support and joining in at ARt Journal Journey. Hugs-Erika
