Intense colour with Inktense

I have a set of Inktense watercolour pencils and they are just awesome.... I don't know what I did without them, the colours are mixable and soooo vibrant, they just make everything pop.  I have used them a lot in my journal of late and because I adored them so much,  I actually asked  for a set of Inktense blocks for Christmas which I happily received and made me grin from ear to ear :)

This page was created with acrylics and Inktense pencils and they work really well together but I just know it will be faster and easier to create luscious backgrounds with the blocks and I'm really going to have some fun playing,  so watch this space.

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.
