Sunday journal page

Sometimes the words I choose for my journal don't reflect what happened or even what I am feeling.
 I was not standing alone today when I saw this scene and there was nothing I wanted to forget.
I love sailboats....
Have a happy week!

Visitor

I knew you couldn't guess it... it's such a random animal that I would have really been surprised if anyone thought of it. Thank you for trying! It was fun to read your comments.
Remember the cartoon with the black cat and a skunk in love?
Look what our camera captured in the backyard.
The black cat is our neighbors.... I thought that it was funny that she is black and seemed to know that we have a 'visitor'. The darling skunk has left our backyard and we closed the way it came in. I think that it is completely adorable and wouldn't mind holding one just like the girl in THIS movie.
It is not allowed to have skunks as pets in California (not that I would really want one, but I was intrigued by the thought), but it's very much allowed to quickly paint them in the journal. 
Happy weekend!

101 BIRDS - Painting #4

Tomorrow I will show you a different animal... Can you believe it, I painted an animal in my journal and it's not a bird!!! Do you want to try and guess which one? There will be a present (painting) for you if you guess correctly...

101 BIRDS - Painting #2

I didn't clean my table after finishing the first painting, so I used the same supplies for painting #2.
It turned out to be a good thing, I think.

Early spring

I skyped with my parents this morning and they showed me the scenery around there home. Deep, fluffy, white snow and only 10°F. Really cold... Then I stepped in front of our home to show them what is surrounding us. Spring came extra early this year.
I played in my small journal, quickly trying to capture the purple, orange, yellow and green tones.
