TODAY they are putting a NEW FOUNDATION on the corner of our new spot so we can add a porch room ...our headboard was two inches lower on that side of the house! All other corners are good!! SUCH is life, one corner a little skewed and if the the other three are stable, you'll make it!! Ha! Then I take kids to ART Classes and they are constantly singing in the back seat the FROZEN theme...."LET IT GO.... LET IT GO!!" SO NEEDLESS TO SAY I'm covered and doing well!! AS IS HUBBY!!
NOW THE OTHER THING...is that I have been taking art classes for my own enjoyment on line for the last year or two or three. Right now the one I am taking is called SKETCHBOOKERY with Mary Ann Moss. It is watercolor joy and journal making about what ever strikes your fancy!! That is her style and so easy going!! Here are a few shots of rediscovering my watercolors and just PLAYING AROUND with color and letters and some blind one line contour drawing which forces you to look at WHAT you are drawing and not what you THINK it should be....just good eye and hand practice!! AND some POSSIBLE JOURNAL COVERS to add signatures of watercolor paper to....oooo YUMMY!!
The journal, bought, a Canson, for my class...it is 9x12 with lots of heavey watercolor pages...I'll make a journal with real stitching a little later and show you the results...but here are some journal covers I might use for journaling about different subjects...like....
This old "Everyday Cookbook cover.....
OR this cover for writing about REFUGEE CHILDREN in THE WORLD.....
OR THIS OLD PAINTING of a Winter Time House with a little collage I added...this could be about the new season in MY LIFE....
I'll do another post later on my new garden adventure for Grandmas....later!! BLESSINGS!!
