This Thursday It's All About..."Colour Is My Obsession". Another journal page made for this challenge. This time, a very colorful pastel acrylic background with a bright red and black border.
The yummy berry tarts are magazine images, carefully cut and glued to the page. Everything else is either a doodle or a word. Amy thought that this child's rhyme was appropriate for the page: "Curly locks, curly locks, wilt thou be mine? Thou shalt not do the dishes nor feed the swine, but sit on a cushion and sew a fine seam, and feed upon strawberries, sugar and cream".
Have a wonderful day, Everyone!
Gorgeous, so many beautiful things on your Blog agian;o)

This is brilliant and so colourful! Mind you, I expect nothing 'quiet' from you now you're back in bright and fun zone! I remember that rhyme too... I looked for that chap when I was dating, but she must've got there before me!! ;-]

Love the way you've used colours here and in all your art - and special thanks for taking the trouble to explain how you did it.

Squeeee! I love this one. It's a riot of color and a beautiful composition. A very "feel good" piece.
