An update: I have finally completed 30 Days of the Journal Project. Here is Day:30. Next month see you all with a new project.
"Keep a green tree in your hand and perhaps a singing bird will come."
The last week of holidays are here. So is August bidding us good bye. Summer was the quickest month and I already miss the long days.
I have also come to an end with Lisa Sonora Beam's online class, Root: 30 Day Journal Project. I finished 29 days and though this is my second time doing the same course I still had a blast. The last prompt will be send tomorrow and I'm planning to create the page and add to this post.
Day-26 A page created on deli paper and I love the soft feel of it. I'm sure I'll be doing more of such pages.
Day-27 I had this background page for a while and never liked it. But now after adding these two 'ladies' I'm so happy that I didn't throw it away.
Day-28 "Have no fear of perfection... you'll never reach it." -Salvador Dali. I love all quotes that remind me about how useless it is to go after perfection.
Day-29 This is for today's quote. "There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it is going to be a butterfly."
R. Buckminster Fuller
Finally, a watercolor sketch of a leaf that I collected while we were at a botanical park.

ReplyDeleteSusan, that leaf is awesome and so good and the color is perfect. I love doing leaves, it will be fall soon. Sad to see summer leave but ready for fall a little bit. Are you going to the 29 faces of September? I'm probably not going to. Have plenty of other stuff keeping me busy.
