Transformation - it's everywhere.
Especially in this season.
I attended a art journaling hangout on Google with Amy Maricle a few months ago. She has some really helpful things on her website, so make sure you go and check it out.
Today looking through a spread I did during that time I decided to take my pens out and start the transformation process.

First I switched directions and turned the journal on it's side. The circles definitely looked like roses to me, so roses they became. I added tendrils and leaves.
After a few layers I added some words.
Viola! It is transformed.
The really nifty thing about it is this:
I am transformed as well.
Very pretty, Linda. And very free, which is always a challenge for me. I love the thought "hanging onto rose memories."
ReplyDeleteJeanie, thank you for pointing out to me something I missed. The freedom. You are right. I did feel freedom while playing. Frankly, I was completely reenergized when I finished it.
DeleteI do so miss the flowers when they hibernate. I usually take a trip to see the roses in Elizabeth Park as they are just stunning. This year I didn't make it. So I guess I am holding on to rose memories even more tightly this year.
So happy and spontaneous....beautiful roses and tendrils!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dianne. Your comment about the tendrils made me happy! I especially enjoyed drawing them.
