Grommets, brads, molding paste, oh my! You seem to be on a familiar basis with these tools and are able to call on them with great effect. To me, they look like a miracle every time. <br /><br />Another thing that strikes me looking at your process of a variety of pieces is the way you soften your work and make the whole harmonious. As Jackie says, it is hard to believe you didn't start out with that effect in mind. When I look at a piece and think the colors don't work together I tend to go brighter. I add intensity - or maybe I should say fluorescence. You go the way of muting and harmonizing. It is always stunning and hard for me to conceptualize....I have tried for that look, but it eludes me. Last night is case in point, I started writing in a junk journal about how much I liked the soft colors of the background, but by the time I had finished the page was exploding with bright colors. I want those colors but can't do them. <br /><br />The swinging Turkmen piece is brilliant! So beautifully mirroring the acrobats and so well placed to allow the page to be functional.<br /><br />So glad I swung by today. Beautiful piece!<br /> Lynda Shouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01278301396769234000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400678625711449202.post-89007904048152305092018-01-12T15:08:25.340-05:002018-01-12T15:08:25.340-05:00That is some amazing texture!

Beautiful page! <br /> I did a art journal last year with a Vintage circus theme and it is one of my favorite art journals to date. Your fun picture reminded me. <br />KateKate Yetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753398916038349242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400678625711449202.post-52054646343355173922018-01-12T08:17:24.114-05:002018-01-12T08:17:24.114-05:00So...wow!

The colors of cleaning your brushes and using leftovers are beautiful, who would have thought those leftovers would meld so exquisitely and go perfectly with that circus piece!It is like you made them exactly to go together!<br />I really love your closure and may I ask what tool you use? I had a cropidile, and it broke! 35$ broken cropper- geesh!<br />Those other pages you worked on are yummy as well- I just love Gwen's stencils!!<br />hugs,JackieJackie PNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400208631365548141noreply@blogger.com
