Series: Artful Academy 2020 journal #7
I like the background — made with my ivy stencil and layers of paint and pen — and I like the foreground. They just really don’t belong together. Maybe if I’d made the background more green than blue, using the complementary colour of red, it would have been better.
June’s theme was “secret”. And the secret here is written on the page underneath the butterfly panel and hinted at by the “Shhh…”
So, not my favourite page so far and, inevitably, not my favourite collage version either. Technically they’re okay, but they just don’t resonate with me. I am pleased with the red, gold, black and white palette of the panel, particularly the gold stencilling. And the torn gold-painted tissue paper peeking out from behind the panel works nicely. I may have to use those elements on a different piece (adds note to long list of things to do or try).

I like it! I wouldn’t have know there was a secret message if you hadn’t told me! LOL! Thanks for sharing!
