Painting Galore

Today was a cold, wet, rainy day here in VA.

After being called into work (boo!),

Going to the gym to find out the class was moved (boo!),

I NEEDED to paint. I put on some rockin' cds

(Can anyone say Thriller?)

And went to town.

I really, really love the format of my music book.

I love the creativity it allows me to have using two colors.

Plus, I love figuring out if the page matches the music.

I have had lyrics first, and made the page according to those,

and I have had the page painted first and found

lyrics based on that. I like both methods.

Take a look!

And a page from my Big Journal. 

This page went through MANY incarnations.

Mostly a hate/hate situation.

I tried using colors I don't normally gravitate towards,

and it just wasn't working. Hmmmm.

I don't hate the final result, nor do I love it.

It does look better than this picture.

There are more reds, and it is more vibrant overall.
