"Summer of Colour" - Green Piece #2
My second piece using green for the week 20th to Sunday the 26th. Included Citron to get "bonus points" and it turned out a really pleasing colour combination. I was floundering about for some nice thoughtful things to say in this piece and ended up using a Buddhist quote but I somehow feel this piece is so contrived. Sigh. Part of my "Bad Art Journaling Week" I suppose.

ReplyDeleteI really struggled with green this week too. When I saw the prompt I thought I was good to go - and it just stalled.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great piece. Not bad journaling art whatever at all. I really dig it.

ReplyDeleteI don't think it is contrived at all.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful : )
This is a very peaceful page. Love that the girl is sitting in profile position...makes the pages very interesting. :)
ReplyDeleteI think it's a very dramatic, beautiful piece!
ReplyDeleteGreat job; love the dreamy feel of this piece!
ReplyDeleteA kind of time out reflection!
I love this journal spread and the quote! My favorite part is the masking tape you used to pop your writing out. So peaceful and serene... Hugs, Jessi xox
ReplyDeleteI love it too! And you are right, the citron really does make it pop - I love the image you used and think that the quote is perfect. Thank you for sharing this, xo
ReplyDeleteI really like this! It's very peaceful. I love the quote you used. Wonderful work! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image and the background is just dreamy. Can hardly wait to see "pink"!
ReplyDeleteThe background is intriguing - love the text peeking through. The girl's pose fits the quote perfectly and I don't see contrived, I see thought provoking. Keeping it all green takes the emphasis away from the details and puts it on the quote....
ReplyDeletewow! WOW!
