Birds


After a long time I have finally worked in my art journal again. At the moment I love fresh, light green, so this was the color of my choice for the background. I love the smoothness and feeling of Liquitex acrylic paints and their colors are so vibrant and brilliant. Just wonderful to work with.

This is a very simple page and done very quickly. The joy I felt while doing it was priceless though.

I'm linking this to Paint Party Friday and Studio JRU where very talented artists meet and show what they're working on - please go and take a peek.

I love this. I'm really feeling the need to clean off my art desk and do some colorful, messy, fun playing in my art journal.

Lovely page, I love that green, it's my favorite color of the green family. The birds are very sweet and warm.

So sweet to hear you describe your feelings doing this colorful page in your art journal. I like it too. and how it felt to "feel the paint go on".
