2 Visual Journal Cards. I drew these quite awhile ago, but only just got around to painting them. The card 'Honestly' was in reaction to a friend losing a long loved dog. The dog was really old (17 years) and the last time she came over to play with our own dog she'd seriously gone downhill. Our friend was in denial that it was time she be put down. Seeing her, deaf and blind and moaning when she laid down just went right to my heart. A few weeks later he took her to the vet, and the vet told him it was time. Honestly ... it was a huge relief for me and I was glad she wasn't in pain anymore. Is that terrible? The second card is of random thoughts and doodles. Me, trying to get my act together and do some create work, but too tired to do anything.
A visual journal. Illustrated pages a of thoughts and ideas. Journal pages in the form of ACEO, ATC, Altered Books, or traditional journal pages by artist Cindy Couling. Also a look at other art projects and swaps currently happening in my studio including mixed media, painting and pottery / ceramics.
