Tag Tuesday - Sea World

I have chosen Sea World for my fortnights hosting on Tag Tuesday. My first one is a mermaid happily swimming with some fish. Mind you, i think she should go to slimming world not sea world.
The background for the top one is a sprayed piece of deli paper. The base of the tag is crackle paint with sone stamped seaweed.
The second one is distress inks on the background, with stamped fish, seaweed,  and die cut seaweed.

Art Journal Journey - In the sky / In the air.

The theme on Art journal Journey set by Erika is "in the sky / In the air, and for this one I homed in on the seagulls at the seaside. Although they are a nuisance and steal food they are very attractive birds. My parents lived on the coast of Devon and mum had a personal vendetta against the, as they were always in the town, and messing everywhere, and people used to feed them their fish and chips.

I have made this simple page with a mixture of inking and collage.
I am also entering this in Try it on Tuesday where the theme is Things with wings.

Art Journal Journey - In the sky/in the air.

The new theme on Art Journal Journey this month is In the sky/in the air. This theme has been set by Erika of BioArtGal.
I hope this one qualifies for the challenge. It is looking up in the sky and seeing birds sitting on the branches. I had great fun doing this.


I am also entering this on Try It on Tuesday where the theme is Things with wings.

Tag Tuesday - Faces

My last tag for Micheles theme of faces on Tag Tuesday I have really enjoyed doing these so have decided to do a whole series on the faces I have painted on my online course.


Thursday Journal with Neet

This week the quote is "Cancel my subscription, I don't need your issues" I sprayed the background with Dylusion inks, and then used various stencils and stamps to finish off the background. The figures are a mixture of stamps and painted with watercolour pens.
At the moment I seem to be travelling all over the country, and have two funerals to go to in the next three weeks. I have  also been bent double in the garden trying to get rid of hundreds of celandines and lamium, which has taken over a corner of the garden. It is also under a copper beech, and although I am not very tall I still have to bend over, my back is now very painful. Serves me right I never know when to stop.

Michele has chosen the theme of faces on Tag Tuesday 
My third face looks a bit odd, but the title was reach for the stars, hence the strange hair style. I really enjoyed doing this one. it was something a bit different.
