It's good to have a place to play, I think--pure play is a the best way to learn new things. There's a nice freedom in a play place, without being too bogged down with "perfection", etc. You have such a great way with colors and textures. And it's fun to see how you grow in learning of all these techniques... It inspires me! :o) ((HUGS))Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179096002434748927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-37172883286450690462015-06-19T09:35:28.256-04:002015-06-19T09:35:28.256-04:00It must be such a delight to be able to turn the p...It must be such a delight to be able to turn the pages of your art journal Jeanie!<br />So much to enjoy...<br />I know I would be tempted to 'touch' all of your gorgeous textures too :-)<br />oxo<br />~*~Patty Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953758102509632020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-13244276312019061242015-06-15T18:24:48.780-04:002015-06-15T18:24:48.780-04:00Wow.

It is not only enchanting with it's fairytale architecture, fabulous restaurants, FABULOUS WINE, but it is rife with art galleries of local and important artists. I have been on an educational as well as pleasure journey here since we arrived on Monday. I have learned so much about my poetry here, and what you have stated about what you have learned what your journal is for is SO IMPORTANT. I need to sit to really jot down every thing that is striking to me about what I've learned, but one thing I have taken away is this: all of us artists must work and work through our attempts. We are ALL in the same situation. We must always ask ourselves what we are doing and why, and to recognize and accept that not every first attempt will be a hit. Oh I need to really sit and put this into real writing.<br /><br />I LOVE that "wonky" Eiffel Tower.....if we just copy line for line what we see, then that is fine. Some realist artists can capture that and capture our hearts. But other artists who give a twist to reality can also capture our souls. Do it until your spirit feels it's right.<br /><br />OK my friend, keep on this lovely path we have chosen to respond to, this path of living and loving the world around us through art.<br /><br />AnitaCastles Crowns and Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01780241008313365707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-88238807817751894742015-06-12T08:20:17.188-04:002015-06-12T08:20:17.188-04:00That's just what an art journal should be; a p...That's just what an art journal should be; a place to experiment with new techniques and ideas, which you can work at improving on later if you want.Victoria Ziglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11872256336482196922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-61834449751495613002015-06-12T02:43:23.222-04:002015-06-12T02:43:23.222-04:00sooooo much talent, lady!sooooo much talent, lady!Gwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386517479350871434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-23362850747095818882015-06-12T02:38:13.294-04:002015-06-12T02:38:13.294-04:00Perfect!
