Just for FUN

We keep going from spring to winter here - I think a lot of us are. Mother nature's testing out spring in some areas, and it reminds me that bulbs should be sprouting. I was working in my art journal and wanted to do a monochromatic page.

I love daffodils. Just a miracle design in my opinion, and such a sturdy plant! Here, I did one in blue watercolor crayon, with a gentle wash of water. I sealed the image with gel extender, and overlayed it with a delicate mulberry paper flecked with gold and silver metallic bits. It looks a bit like a cold snowstorm late in the evening or early  morning.

I'd love to know what you think of this. Would you like to see more of my journal entries posted here? Let me know!

Ta for now, ~ky
