Happy FALL!!! boy oh boy did it arrive here today.. it is a typical GREAT fall day... and I LOVE it... nice cool weather.... crispness in the air... and just perfect weather... I personally love the spring and the fall... because the weather is so perfect... LOVE IT... Hope that you have had a nice day...
I took my journal out on the deck and started to play... and all of a sudden I realized that I had to go to the store... so I quickly went and got done what I needed to, to come back and tangle a little more... I have had fun today...
Also in the mail I got another set of Derwent pencils... these are the graphite ones with color... so that of course took me off into another direction... as I had to play with them... I really like them so far... and they are water soluble too... super great for tangling with..
I wanted to try a few new things... this being one... I love it.. I wanted the back ground to show thru... so I added white into the center of the chain links... and used a white ink on the tangle...
The background is done with twinkling h2o's... my favorite paints of all times...
The background on this page is done with gelatoes... a very different look.... entirely different in real life too...
This page I had to do what I saw in my dream last night... or this morning... when ever it was in my dream... the petals were a little bit different... but sort of like this.. I am going to play with it a little more... anyway... this is a beginning...
Anyway... i had seen it a few weeks ago.. but to be honest it really didn't strike me as one that I would enjoy... that is still up in the air... but I did try it quite a few times... and here is what I came up with... This is the entire page...
And this is a closeup of the IX tangle.... I again used white paint on the chain... and the background was done with dylusions... a great spray. If you haven't tried them... it is a must... VIVID, BRIGHT colors... love them...
This tag was created with twinkling H2's... and then I started to tangle on it... and love the way it turned out... but not my favorite...
I am still not really in love with this tangle... but that doesn't mean anything...sometimes it is just like that... things have to grow on me.
I love the colors of this page... and so I wanted to use them today... the fall colors are screaming out of this page...
So I have a blast doing this one...
The background was done with Dylusion sprays... and then a little inks here and there... I tangled it... and then shaded with my new derwent graphite pencils... they have color to them... love these already...
They give you depth and also a subtle color... and it allows you to shade, cover up mistakes... (YEAH!!!) and hide a multitude of yuckie areas...
So yes I love them...
And I love the way that this page turned out...
Do YOU???
I really hope that you are enjoying this wonderful fall weather... I am... it has been one of those days, that I really don't want to end... and yet, I can hardly wait to cuddle up underneath a quilt and read too...
Thanks for stopping by for a visit... and also all the GREAT comments you all are leaving.. .I love you all... and thank you from the bottom of my heart...
Love, Light and Peace....Bonnie
All your pieces are vibrant and beautiful! Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteIX is so beautifully incorporated into these pieces. It is perfectly placed in each tile!
ReplyDeleteAll lovely!!!
ReplyDeletevery nice. Love the colour combos.
ReplyDeleteAll of your work are great colorful pieces of artwork, with a great use of the IX-tangle
ReplyDeleteI understand how you feel about the IX pattern, but you managed to make it gorgeous with all the added color! Gotta try something like that, as it looks like such fun.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Bonnie! I love them!
