I started by colouring blocks of different colours using my Inktense pencils and a water brush, then added other colours to give some depth. I then doodled using Stabilo fineliners and some Metallic Neocolours. I also used a white uniball Signo pen and a randomly stamped music background stamp.
This was all done while watching TV last night. We had spent most of the day at our Brother-in-Law's funeral and wake and I just felt the bright colours would lift my mood!
I am also linking to Kim Dellow's 'Show Your Face'.
Here is my Lucy with her kaleidoscope eyes.
Thanks for looking, Chris

I am sorry about your Brother-in-law's passing. As artists, we are blessed to be able to use our own art as therapy during times like that. I love the colors and the interesting detailing in your composition. Thanks for visiting my blog earlier. Blessings.
I was so excited when I saw that you had linked up to Kim's blog because I've been meaning to visit for ages! I love your work and this colourful journal page is gorgeous, Chris! It's really in the spirit of Sergeant Pepper - I'm sure Peter Blake would approve! I'm so sorry to hear of your sad day. Thinking of you and sending you love. xx
