Today I'm thankful for
COLOUR.
Playing with colour is a great way to bring light into our lives, and especially when we're feeling 'grey'...or 'blue'.
In exactly the same way a touch of bright sunshine - think Spring - changes the way nature appears, bright colours can also change how life looks and therefore how we feel. Not always - but some of the time. Light can make such a huge difference.
I added blobs of Liquitex (vibrant) heavy body acrylics to the top of my page, spritzed with water, stood it upright to let them drip downwards, then spritzed again a few times, to encourage the flow.
(I had to dab off some of the 'muddy' bits as they flowed a little too much 😉)
The paintbrushes and words are stamped and clear embossed, then coloured with Posca pens and Stylo White Gel Pen.

Indeed, colour can so easily set a mood with us and this page made me feel so happy. What a lovely ;riot of colour you have given us to look at today. Love how you have let them run down the page without turning into mud. Your paintbrushes are just great sitting there and i do like the addition of the white pen you have used.
Hugs, Neet xx
