"I refuse to become what you call normal" is the quote for this week. I had it in my head which figure to use but then I had to change journals so it had to change. Do I go with an animals head on a human body or a human head on an animal body?
The background was already done from a previous journal day with Dyan at Art from the Heart - red and orange "blobs" from the roller - so I just went over the whole lot with Dyan's yellow paint. I was going to do something else with the background but I left it but added some little buzzy bees at the top.
Nobody but nobody walks around in a corset type top with suspenders and striped stockings, but if they do they certainly don't have their head in a box. Well this "not normal" woman does and she is. Mind you her friend is a bit peculiar too with that hair and those studs going across her face. Not sure who is normal here!
I am, once again, linking this to Art journal Journey where the theme is "Yellow" - a lovely sunny colour for February. Maybe that is what brought us the real sunshine of the last few days.

Fabulous page, love the figures. I so nearly used the one in suspenders, and I have never used the head in the cage, well done for the combination.
Wonderful background, Neet and a great choice of bodies and heads. That quote is pretty brilliant! I like that one :-) Love the way the yellow looks here - great choice.
Who wants to be 'normal' anyway???

For this quote you really found the right figures! A cool combination of bodies and heads! The textured background in yellow and orange is gorgeous!
Thank you for a wonderful last entry to my theme "Yellow" at AJJ! I appreciate it!
Wish you a happy day! Rike x
what a fun page!
Your page is wonderful Neet, the figures are fabulous and I love the quote.

You and Wendy come up with the most unusual and unique ways to approach these sentiments. I have to admit, your lady may be a bit less normal than usual, but her friend is also unique with her cherry dress and shoes. That background is really quite lovely, too. Most impressive art, Neet. I know I just made it under the wire, but I absolutely love this and am so glad you shared it with us at Art Journal Journey.
