We went away again for a couple of days hoping to catch some nice weather before it turned cold. We had to come home today as we were expecting a delivery and when it turned wet on Tuesday I spent the afternoon colouring in some circles I had stamped using another of Tracy Scott's stamps for Paper Artsy.
My coloured pencils have helped me so much as when I can't do much because of this back pain I can sit on my chair with the heat pad on my back and just gently colour in. I have so many Janet Klein and Dylusion figures already done that it has been a joy to colour something else for a change. Art Journal Journey has made that so easy with Eileen's theme of "Inspired by ...", co-hosted by Erika and Chris because Eileen had passed before the Team had chance to put it forward but they decided to honour her memory by continuing with it in her name.
Just of late I got a little carried away with my colouring and I have definitely been inspired to fill my journal with pages where I used coloured pencils as my medium of choice. One person who certainly inspires me to use my pencils is Miranda whom I have mentioned previously as she does the most beautiful artwork using Derwent products. I would love to be able to use them as skilfully as she does but even so I get so much enjoyment just playing around with colour.
