Jeudi Journal - Look Both Ways ...

"Look both ways before crossing a woman" was Wendy's choice for this week.


Now I have a confession to make.  I forgot it was Thursday!  Woke up at 4.30 am and sat in bed for a couple of hours sorting photos out on my tablet, or trying to.  Then I got up as I had to go for a blood test first thing and it was then I realised it was Thursday - and no journal done!!  

Luckily I had a background of sorts ready, it had set off as bright orange (if memory serves me right it was several DI's in oranges just swiped across the page) with some green pushed through a stencil randomly.  As usual I was not happy with it and so I swiped some Gesso across the whole lot to tone it down a bit.  Then it got left - waiting for Thursday ...

Before I went to the surgery I stamped some of AAL & Create's eyes and fingerprints on the page and scribbled the words "Left" and "Right" on a couple of times.  

When I got back I decided to go with the cat and dog again - he is always in the dog house!  She has an attitude with that stance of hers and so, along with a pair of legs for her which look as if she is about to kick him, the page was done.  Apart from another pair of eyes which I found in my Dylusion batch of ready cut out shapes that is.

So here you have it - almost lunch time but done despite a great deal of pain again today.  Boo Hoo!  Thank goodness for Chas who has helped out with the scanning and reaching things for me.  Even though my back is hurting I did have fun finishing this off and so I am entering it into Wendy's choice at Art Journal Journey - which is 'Having Fun'.
