art journal page with dragonfly wings


















That didn\t take too long did it.  Here is my journal page using the dragonfly wings I posted earlier this week.  I put a wash of paint over the writing.  I like that the paint made some of the ink run. 
I rarely draw in my journals - because I don't draw very well.  Am a I still artist if I can\t draw?

Go forth giggling!

What interesting wings! Love them! I don't have the book you mentioned, but this is inspiring enough to launch me in another direction, (using fusible webbing maybe?) to get gorgeous wings, too! You have set a high standard!

Yes, my darling sister you are still an artist if you can't draw. Being published now should eternally silence that worry!!

Bead Journal for September

I feel like this has enough beading now.  The beading enhances the kaleidoscope without obliterating it.  I pushed myself outside of my box by using some bigger beads.  I am always learning!

Slow Stitching Sunday

 Working on another wool mandala.  It is a pleasure to have the wool on my lap now that the weather has turned colder.  I started this project back in the summer and didn't enjoy working on it so much then.  I wonder if I can complete this project this winter.  There are fifteen wool mandalas to do.  It doesn't seem likely that I will.  I could be wrong.  I don't want to put any undue pressure on myself.  There is no deadline.  The spring might be cool enough to continue working on it.   My but I do jump into the future.  Slow stitching really helps me to be present.  I am so grateful that stitching is such a balm for my soul.  We all need to have something that does that for us.   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/
