Gym Update - Jeudi Journal

I think this was my choice but I am ready to be shot down by Wendy as I am not really sure.  Wendy is always on the ball with these things.  Anyhow, once again it was a pre-painted page that just needed a bit more colour on to cover up the blank bits and so I went with my Distress Inks/Oxides.

I wanted to portray someone who was "skipping" their keep fit at the gym and first of all thought of one of the lying down figures but settled for the one who obviously was out shopping.  I just love the huge glasses and so I went with a plain head that they would fit on.  

She looked a bit out of balance without any hair so I had to think of something to give her a bit of height to counter the glasses and so I began with a rooftop and then put in two of the 'horns'.

As she looked a bit lonely on the page I decided to give her a little dog to go out shopping with.  This one sits so well that I thought he would be good when left outside the shops.  Just to make sure you all knew why she was not at the gym, in case the picture did not do it for you, I put a sign by the side of the dog.


Love those eyes, but not sure about the hat!
