Red

Journaling in January - Day 16

Interesting things start happening when you make the time to paint every day. I started by painting the page with black gesso. I don't know why. I don't even remember when it was the last time I used it (the poor thing became very thick, it wasn't easy to get it out of the bottle). I left the black showing through and enjoyed scratching through layers. We'll play with yellow tomorrow.

    Hi Zorana, I love her face, and the red you have used is so deep, the black was a great idea..this is making us let go and let our intuition come isnt it?...xx

    These red pages are so strong! I love how you used the black gesso and the way it shows through.
