Sunday Art Journal

Yesterday afternoon I played with paint and paper and created my own colourful design. I started with a blank sheet and glued on a few scraps of paper - from an old hymn book and a magazine. Then I splotched watercolour over it and added a few squiggles and lines. It didn't look like much.
But cut apart into strips and letters, I'm pleased with the colours. I put these pages together fast and didn't think too much - just let the bits come together on their own.

    I love the playfulness of your design. Loved the colours too!

    SO nice to be playful at times instead of overthinking a project. Very pretty Lorrie!
