Who doesn't love flowers...


.... the beauty of them, the scent of them and their delicateness.  I love to look out into my garden in the Summer and look at the myriad of colours that appear day by day.  I have to say that I'm not a fan of Winter because although it can look pretty when snow falls... I just HATE being cold!


My art journal is the best place to bring those flowers alive during the miserable winter months, popping with colour they can continue to make me smile and look forward to warmer, drier days.

Everything New....

..... A New Year,  A New Blog and New Art waiting to be created and shared.  I hope you will join me in my Artful pursuits and hope they will bring you as much joy, as creating them will bring to me.  At the moment I find myself burying my head in my Art journals whenever I have a spare moment.   I have no rules.... my mood dictates what comes.... I can completely lose myself in a page although often I flit from one journal to another without completing any pages at all.  It's all about the experiment and the fun.  I adore starting a new journal and I've made my first one for 2015 and can't wait to 'get stuck in' lol  I will be sharing as I go along and as I don't have any particular style whilst art journalling,  every page is as much a surprise to me as it will be to you.   I will be joining in with a few artistic challenges over the year to keep me inspired and to keep my art fresh so I hope you will enjoy the results.
I will begin by sharing with you a couple of my latest journal pages... they make me happy...I hope they make you happy too.


I love to doodle and do hand lettering and I can spend hours doing just that.  My only problem sometimes is that I forget where to stop. Time stands still when I have a pen or pencil in my hand. I totally lose myself.


I like to use quotes and include messages to myself in some of my journal pages.  Just little reminders and affirmations that mean something to me.  Other times I just enjoy colour and shapes and whatever is, just is.
