Page 17. Purpose.
I totally forgot to take photos of how I did this page. I started by colouring the background with thin layers of acrylic paint, both back and front. I used blue,pink,white and green, layering the over and over.
I then added the images. These images were chosen as I often feel I have no purpose, that i am wandering, flitting fro one thing to another..like a butterfly...
The butterfly does not stay in one place too long, they go from flower to flower, seemingly without purpose..but of course that is the secret to their purpose all along.
On the front I then added 'Polyfilla' around the edges and when it was dry I painted over it and added gold wax..
On the back I hand wrote my journalling in black and then again in white, and added the gold rub around the edges.

as I said I thought I had no purpose,
ReplyDeletebut maybe purpose finds us as we flit about aimlessly?
i quite like that we are all on different pages, makes it sooo interesting
