Take a Word - Orange

The challenge this week is ORANGE, and I decided this journal page qualifies.   Sometimes I'm struck with the sameness of my days and I feel a bit bored.  I usually combat it with a shopping jaunt, a new art project, an interesting book, and, if all else fails, chocolate!!!    Thanks for stopping by.

  2. This lovely journal page is full of contradictions, Bev, on the one hand there you are feeling all bored, and on the other what a bright and happy page! Love it. Chocolate sounds good though!

  5. Bev, I hope you keep using your wonderful hand-drawn images in your art because they are so beautifully executed. This one is your best so far. I love this face. I love the expression of boredom and her wonderful eyes and her topnotch of grey hair. I am willing to bet it is hitting a chord with many of our fellow members today. FABULOUS.

  10. I don't see how anyone could be bored with such fun beautiful blue hair! All the vibrant orange and other colors should help cheer her up.
