A MONTH GONE BY

 

I had not realised that my last post was nearly a month ago and I have no idea where that time has gone considering I lead rather a dull life. So, here is some arty stuff that I have done. Bear in mind that I am exporing different mediums and still learning how to use them. 

I eventually completed this colouring page...

This leafy page is slowly heading towards the finish line although the page next to it on the left continues the design. I think I might complete that one in totally different colours and make it a separate page. I am still deciding whether to leave the background as it is or add some colour. Question is....what colour????

I started this page ages ago to experiment with my Inktense water colour pencils. They work differently to the usual watercolour pencils as they are ink based. I finished it at the weekend.

Then I decided to play with some gold, silver and white gel pens on a pastel background. I shaved a pastel pencil onto the background and then smooshed it around with a cotton wool ball. Some fixative was required so the pastel doesn't transfer to the opposite page. 

            I finished the last book of the Rivenshaw series.

So, that is what I have achieved in a month. I am now toying with the idea of crocheting a Mystical Lanterns blanket but I have made quite a few blankets already and most of them, like my quilts, are stashed away. Big sigh.
