In the country...

 Hi everyone, I have been struggling to find time to get everything done lately. We have had a few appointments, hopefully the last one is tomorrow, I also have a special post coming up later this week.

I did make a journal page, it took a few days to to it!

I painted this little scene for my class here last week (it was one of several)

I drew a frame for it and added some blue and green wash to the page.

The greenery is  different green inks through a stencil with a variety of stems and the words at the top are from a very old block mounted stamp.

I am celebrating a 'Summer Countryside' at Art Journal Journey where Alison of Words and Pictures blog is hosting.

Hopefully normal service will be resumed soon!

Thanks for looking, Chris

    Just lovely - the rolling hills of the countryside are so pretty, and I love the layered stencilling in the foreground in all the shades of green. Hope things settle down for you soon... I'm having the same problem with keeping up with stuff.
