It has also changed the nature of the page I was preparing! I had started this page a while ago by using Infusions and now I can't remember which ones!
I painted the bottom half of the page with Frescos(Little black Dress) and then stamped some Paper Artsy Lynne Perrella building stamps and a York Minster one bought in York - there is a stamp shop by the city gates.
I would like to enter Challenge no4 at Paper Artsy - Doors, Windows, Architecture.
I would also like to join in again with Yvonne's theme 'Out and About' at Art Journal Journey
A big Thank You to all those who attend tragedies that are often dark in nature!
Thanks for looking, Chris
I, too, was very shocked when I saw it on the news this evening, the world is getting crazier and more violent day by day. Lovely and fitting journal page, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteNo one is safe these days and we rely so much on the protection we get from the special services.
ReplyDeleteYour page is apt and right for this evening
Love Chrissie xx
A sunny day really did turn dark Chris, my heart goes out to those innocent people and their families whose lives have been changed today.. it is all so senseless.... Your page describes today so well.. Hugs, Anne xx
ReplyDeleteyou have created a wonderful page Chris, I love the dark black bottom with the buildings rising out of it. We are fortunate indeed in our emergency services!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and fitting tribute, and the sentiment is just perfect. I can't help thinking of these poor people who just set out on the start of today as we all did with no idea of what was to come. My heart goes out to them and their families and your piece of art is such a fitting tribute. I bet you had a visit to 'Make Your Mark' on your trip to York. We only live about an hour away and we visit there often on our travels. Crafty hugs, Sandra x
ReplyDeleteA great page Chris and tells the devastation we are all feeling over today's terrible news

A very touching page, a real tribute to what has been happening here in London today.
ReplyDeleteI think most of us were stunned at the news and feel for those who lost loved ones and were injured. Our Police and Emergency services deserve all the praise we can give them

Wow! So poignant! xx
ReplyDeletewonderful, fantasic the page!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's been all over the news here, and local crews are scrambling to learn more. Seems there were some Americans inside Parliament when the attack happened. It's a sad day and one that we should not ignore.
ReplyDeleteAs an aside, and not to belittle the brave officer who lost his life today, we had a "similar" incident earlier this week, when we lost both a police officer and his canine partner. Both were killed by a suspect who was later killed by other officers. Such a waste of life and outpouring over this officer and his faithful dog companion. Both "officers" have been awarded medals posthumously by the city.
Yes it's all so sad Chris and for what??? Love your page and what it represents xxx
ReplyDeleteTerrible news indeed. Your page is gorgeous dear Chris! These speckles make such a super effect. Thank you very much for yet another fabulous entry to Art Journal Journey!

Chris, this is a wonderful tribute to those who were involved in the terrible horror of yesterday.
ReplyDeleteBless You,

Wow Chris, this is just gorgeous!! I could imagine myself living in that wee house atop the big forest cliff. Sitting under the night sky with the stars twinkling and the clouds creating the most amazing patterns! The sentiment is lovely, and the scenery is magnificent!! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteSo so sad, and so hard to believe people are so malicious. Your tribute page is moving and I admire you for doing it. Big hugs and so thankful you are safe, Autumn
ReplyDeleteA very poignant and evocative tribute on a very sad day and a beautiful piece of art. It makes me feel very humble that people are working to protect us, both behind the scenes in intelligencd gathering and in putting their lives at risk. Also that ordinary people going about their day will step in and help one another without a thought for themselves. There is far more good than evil in the world,

Chris, this is beautiful and such a powerful tribute! The events on Wednesday felt so close to home, as the courageous Police Officer who lost his life had worked here in Bromley where we live for a while and my friend's son had walked over Westminster Bridge to a conference only the day before. The courage and selflessness of those who protect us on a daily basis never cease to humble me. Thank You for meditating in your journal and creating such a poignant image, so relevant to us all.
ReplyDeleteThat was indeed some frightening news :( Your journal page is a beautiful statement and tribute. My heart goes out to the families of people whom were lost/injured in the attack... (hugs)
ReplyDeleteThis is a touching tribute and very fitting. The background is beautiful and so full of texture.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great page, the background is lovely, the concept perfectly executed and, yes, a wonderful tribute to our emergency services.
ReplyDeleteWow. That is a gorgeous starry night!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and poignant page you created dear Chris.
ReplyDeleteThe news is horrific ... so much senseless violence and suffering.
Sending Peace and Healing to you from across the pond.
Happy Mothering Sunday to you too ❤💐❤ oxo
