Hi everyone, I have other pages but this is a favourite and I really wanted to share it as part of my Art Journal Journey 'Spring Forward' theme. I suppose I am just obsessed by flowers, especially Spring flowers, and partly because by now hubby and I would have visited several of the gardens around here. It will be a while before we can go out and have a walk, although I have seen lots of signs of Spring from our windows.
When I was a child we would often go for walks with my Gran - there was field we used to pass and as soon as the cowslips appeared we would climb over the gate to pick some.
I spattered the page with watercolour paint and added some scraps of designer paper. The flowers and heading were cut from an old Matthew Rice calendar.
I have really enjoyed seeing the variety of pages everyone has produced for my Art Journal Journey theme - Thank you all so much.
Thanks for looking, Chris

I've never seen, nor heard of cowslips before. They are certainly pretty pastel flowers. I love how you colored th9e background and how well you fussy cut the flowers. This is another incredibly lovely entry for your theme at AJJ.
ReplyDeleteThis is another lovely spring page Chris. Cowslips are so pretty, aren't they? I like how you have that printed word at the bottom of the page too. Thanks for hosting. I'll have my last page at TIOT tomorrow. hugs-Erika
