'The older you get the more you realise why you can't stand people' are the words this week.
I have given the page a sunny hot colour scheme to fit with Chris's theme of Hot Summer (nights and days) on Art Journal Journey.
Anna had taken her little dog Alfie to the beach for a nice long walk. Alfie was a very friendly dog with humans and with other dogs no matter what size they were. When they arrived on the beach Anna found when she arrived that there was hardly any beach left, it was covered in people, screaming kids and also that dogs were not allowed on the beach this month. (probably because it was full of holiday makers) She had completely forgotten this and had wondered why people were just glaring at her. Alfie thought all his birthdays had come at once and had immediately run off to play with the nearest bunch of children. Feeling very uncomfortable Anna quickly called Alfie to her side, put his lead back on and retreated to her car.
"Come on Alfie we will go out onto the moor and you can run around there, but not if there are any sheep around" She knew Alfie would want to play with them if there was. When they arrived at the moors car park Anna couldn't find anywhere to park the car and decided that Alfie would have to make do with her throwing a ball for him in the garden.
Alfie was not happy and looked at Anna with sad and accusing eyes. "Sorry Alfie, but the older you get the more you realise you can't stand people. Alfie didn't understand a word she said but it sounded sympathetic and he would have to go along with whatever she had in mind for him.
