Hi Everyone, I wanted to make one more journal page for AJJ's theme this month of birds.
I did a watercolor practice of an oriole, that I wasn't totally impressed with, but I was thinking it would blend in nicely with a collage. I also used India black ink.
In my paper stash I found a calendar page I had saved-perfect-cut that to size for my journal book, added my watercolor oriole, and I wanted a third bird, so looking in my stash found a page that had lots of images that looked like stamps-found the turkey. I liked the colors of the turkey for this page and it was the third element

If you are celebrating - enjoy the Holiday weekend, the rain and storms here will finally stop on Friday and turn quite hot-perfect for all of those crazy boaters that will arrive haha

DeleteWhat a great page, Kathy! This one is definitely one of my favorites. It's looking like we will be having a week of beautiful sunny weather, so bring on the boaters! I think it would be fun just to sit back and watch.
ReplyDeleteYes once the weekend is here we will jump right up to summer temps sun and no storms-perfect for all of the boaters--it will be bonkers here this long weekend though many opening up their summer homes and do to all the storms we have had more will be here.
DeleteIt is fun to watch them but this weekend will just be craziness
thank you about my page, I really like this one too, and my oriole painting looks better here too
Kathy, this is beautiful!!!!! Hmmm. Long weekend, soooo much to do. Maybe I find the time and ... "courage" to try watercolors (but don´t count on it).

ReplyDeleteHi Jo, thanks so much that is so stressful when our internet does not work right-we have all gotten so dependent on it so I totally understand hugs thank you for visiting
DeleteNicey done. Reading the page above your artwork...frog legs. lol
ReplyDeleteHaha
DeleteI really like how you added your oriole to the page. It came out great and I actually thought it was printed on the page, not drawn and added by you until I looked closely at the finished page. You made a pretty picture even prettier. Thanks for sharing this with us at AJJ for Matilde's challenge. Enjoy your weekend Kathy. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeletethank you so much for your comments Erika, I thought too my oriole blended right in to this page. Happy weekend we are to find summer weather beginning on saturday here on the lake

DeleteSorry I'm late visiting. I have been offline since Thursday due to a lightening strike, which also took out my computer. I like how you added the additional birds to the original image. This is great and you drew a great bird, too. Thanks for sharing this with us at Art Journal Journey using Matilde's theme.
