Don't worry...

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow,
it only saps today of its joy.
Leo Buscaglia

It seems like a dark page, but it's not because I'm in a dark mood. Hana has a love affair with payne's grey. She used it for some paintings, but she left tons of it unused... I told her to paint a background in my journal and that I will work on the page later. This is the background she painted:
Of course I can't paint over that... She calls it 'scribbles' - I see a story. Anyway, there was still more paint so I did the 'worry' page. Long explanation for a simple page...

  7. I love Payne's Grey too and recently used a lot of it in a painting/collage I did for my dining room. Definitely different for me to work with darker colors than my usual brights... but still always good to try different colors and see where they take you.

    I LOVE the print that Dot is showing on her blog right now. I joked and said it looks like "me" 20 years ago (red hair, blue eyes)... or maybe how I'd like to look now. ha ha... anyway.... beautiful work as usual.

    Hope you're having a great day.
