Art Journal Pages I forgot to post yesterday!

Here are the journal pages I made over the weekend... Dy had us pull a coloured card out of a basket with a word on it. We could do anything we liked using that colour and word prompt.
I picked the colour black and the word sensual. My first thought was making love...I blushed at that because my intimate life is private and I didn't feel I wanted to share it - plus, this was the first page I'd made in front of anybody!!! But I went with it and I'm being brave letting you see it even though it is pretty tame!

Then we had a go at 'ghosting' .....writing out something private - I was the last to finish, I wrote so much! then we painted over the words with gesso, dried that layer and applied colour using crayon in a random fashion. Next we applied a wash of water over that - you can't see on this photo, but it gave lovely pastel shades and the words, although slightly visible are indecipherable (is that how you spell THAT!)

This next one because it's a special part of my communion with God...

We all had to choose an image and then pulled a name out of a hat and gave the image to that person and they had to use it on a journal page... Michelle chose this image and my name was pulled out of the hat....I felt a bit under pressure, because I like to think about what I might do and that takes time, but I came up with this....

I started this page but added the stamped words and doodled edges at home...I shall probably tweak all of them at some point, because I can't tell when they're finished!

And this is my art calendar so far for Kate's 365 challenge....

Andy and I have just spent the day in York with our youngest daughter, it's her birthday today. typical me, I forgot the camera!
