Neet passed away last Wednesday, so I will not be doing the Thursday Journal anymore, but I will endeavour to support AJJ in other ways.
Mia is hosting this month on Art Journal Journey and her theme is birds, one if my favourite.
I have done a collaged background with a bird tag on top.
I have decided to not do the Thursday Journal until Neet is well enough to join me.
In the meantime I will do pages for Art Journal Journey where Chris's theme is Spring forward This page is a collage with a tag on top depicting the nesting of the birds and a few Sprng flowers.
Amber the orangutan, drawn in soft pastels and pastel pencils. This took me about eleven hours in total.
'The skeletons in your closet are suggesting that you upgrade to a double-wide walk-in' are this weeks quote. I'm not sure I would know how to take that remark if someone said it to me.
Dorothy and her slim friend Zoe were discussing fashion and how to keep up with it, although Zoe really didn't think her friend knew what fashion was.
"I just wear what I like that I am comfortable with" exclaimed Dorothy
"Yes that's all very well, but you are still in your twenties and dress as someone in their fifties. replied Zoe.
"Oh do you really think so, perhaps I should start by loosing weight, and go from there. I'm pleased you told me as I rarely think about clothes" said Dorothy.
"You do look a bit frumpy in that dress which looks more like a dressing gown. In fact the skeletons in your closet are suggesting you upgrade to a double wide walk in" laughed Zoe
"Yes, very funny. giggled Dorothy.

This week the words are 'Some people say their body is a temple. Mine is a bouncy castle.
As usual Abigail is complaining to her fiend Cathy that is is fed up with going on a diet and not loosing any weight.
"It's probably because you only do them for about a week and the go onto another one. It's a big triumph for you if you loose1lb, that's not going to get you anywhere. You either have to stick to one good diet or do some exercises and eat sensibly, then you might loose some weight". Cathy replied.
"You know I don't do exercise, but I suppose I could do something about my diet "Abigail mumbled.
"Please try, or I will get fed up with you grumbling all the time. Cathy said.
Ok, some people say their body is a temple,. Mine is a bouncy castle" replied Abigail.
They both laughed at that.

This week the words are 'I've been accepted into hell on a full scholarship' The background is a mix of two stencils that I wiped clean with a wet wipe onto a clean page I then used some similar colours to over up the white of the page that was left.
Gina and her friend Shelly were together in Gina's house discussing the results of their choices for university. Gina had put two top universities as her first two choices, and on the suggestion of her headmistress the third was one she hadn't even considered as she didn't think it was any good.
Shelly was less ambitious and had three reasonable choices on her list, they all suited the subjects she wanted to study and was pleased she had been accepted for her first choice.
"Well how did you on, which one are you going to" asked Shelly
"I was hoping you weren't going to ask me, I'm rally disappointed." replied Gina.
Well you didn't do as well with your exams as you had hoped" said Shelly.
"No that's the problem, my first two choices wanted three A's and as I ended up with an A, a B, and a C I've been accepted into hell on a full scholarship" Gina grumbled.
"OH" exclaimed Shelly, not knowing what else to say to her friend.
