I just went for it with this page.
I didn’t think. I didn’t plan. I didn’t even put my apron on…which is a bummer because now I have orange paint on my pants. Did I mention I’m a messy painter?
The other day while walking OUT of the bank…which was the last stop of my errands…I discovered that I had a clump of gel medium or maybe mod podge gluing part of my bangs together.
Nice. So classy. Made me think of the “hair gel” scene from Something about Mary… Perhaps I need to make a sign to hang on the door…”Look in the mirror before leaving the house.” As you may have guessed I’m not a terribly vain or high maintenance kind of girl.
I’m linking up with Art Journal Journey with this post. My journal page fit their theme! IT was meant to be!
The first thing I saw when I woke was this colorful, VERY COLORFUL spread. It woke me, that’s for sure.
You are a friend after my own heart. Never saw that movie, so I have no reference, but I can understand the concept. As for aprons, I’ve never worn one. It wouldn’t help when I drag my sleeves through paint though. You may have orange on your jeans, but I have paint on every sleeve I own, except for two tops I only wear for good. Often I forget to change clothes when I get home from out and about, and there goes a top.
You should share this with Art Journal Journey, whose challenge this month is quotes and poems. It’s fun, adorable, and COLORFUL! Link to their site is on my right sidebar.
