Opposites Attract - June 2024

I had painted this page with this pink some time ago because I had to much fresh paint. Everything seems to work out in the end, doesn't it? I then had a watercolor page I had done in March for four leaf clovers but never used it. So I took a stamp roller and rolled pick flowers a crossed it in differed deepness of color. Cut those in strips, then went hunting for my color pallet in my stash. I found the green colors newspaper from a mini brand kit and then need to think about the what the heck was I going to add... since this was about opposites I figure perfect. We as humans tend to find opposite partners in life whether that's in your best friend or your spouse. 

Live Life in Full Color

Easter weekend I took my daughter and granddaughter to our beach. Something we needed to help us get through this week of uncertainty.  My daughter tumor is back and we are waiting for her results and at times the worry can crimple us. The unknown. I recently post the picture below of her and her baby with the quote " May you find the strength to endure the unknown from the love that surrounds you." 

I hope she can live her life in full colour.

We miss you!

Art Journal - LIGHT

 

Recently my soul sister has gone through a major loss in her life, one that has left her with wonder, questions and the feeling of her love just wasn't enough. You see she was taken in by these two wonderful souls late in life, and many times she would see her own grandmother in this woman. She always thought this woman was brought into her life from her heavenly grandmother since it was soon after she had passed that she found these two Jerry and Jeananne. After 20 year of love and friendship dear Jerry passed away this passed December. She new she would not have Jeananne for long after Jerry, but hopped that she would see there was still joy and life within her. We had so many of our own adventures planned, which included her. Jeananne died a few days ago from a broke heart. Unfortunately my soul sister found her, she was sitting in her recliner wearing her favorite purple sweat set looking like she was taking the best nap ever.  

My art journal this week is of pain, sadness and being lost. 

They say grief is an ugly thing and someone does not truly get to the tail end of it until 7 years in, so I will be creating a list of places to see for my soul sister who plans on spreading the ashes of Jeananne with wildflowers.  OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS!

Used: Gesso, black alcohol marker, gold metallic pen, white Bombay liquid ink, yellow acrylic paint.
