Whoopee have now completed Week 4 of the Recycling Journal pages run by Strathmore free online course, tutor is the amazing Pam Carriker. On week 4 we finished it off by highlighting, redefining, words etc and this is my page complete now. Have shown Week 3 again so hopefully you can see the difference............. Have to wait now until March 1st for the next one which is 'Visual Journey', haven't a clue what thats about but will give it a go......
My homework this week from Art Class is a child ballerina in watercolour..............eeeeeek, never done arms and legs before, well not real ones.........and drawing those hands, what a nightmare. So between you and me, think I will go with a misty look so hopefully my tutor will just like the effect rather than my lack of artistic skills....... Well you have to use artistic licence don't you........lol
Hope you all have a lovely Sunday, its freezing cold here so am off to cook the Sunday Roast which will warm us up, then a little sleep afterwards......... Thank you for popping in and having a nosey; will catch up with you all later. Take care, Annette x

I think all these different challenges are really good for us Netty and stretch our boundaries and skills. These are gorgeous pages. You seem to manage to accomplish so many different styles! (BTW thanks for your comments on my blog)
I'm taking the class too but arrived late. I've finished the first session and will try to get to the second one today. I see you have finished! Congratulations for staying with it. I like the progress you have made. Yes..we must stretch our boundaries as your friend Carol said.
Always a joy to visit your fabulous blog, Netty! You have such a wonderful way of creating art that I just love! Keeps me returning to see what you will do next.

Good luck with the homework and it sounds like you've got the perfect answer with the going misty look. Can't wait to see it. Hugs, Chris x
Hi Netty! I love the class at the Strathmore workshop. I have not come to the point that I dare share my attempt of this art called journal pages, but love looking at yours. Hugs and take care!

Thought your page was brilliant before but all your additions have made it even better. Good luck with your ART homework. That would give me nightmares. I am just having morning coffee and you are already cooking dinner. Isn't time mysterious.
This is gorgeous! I'll have to watch for the next class. ~Diane

Loved your Teabag template on GSC by the way and have just finished creating some of my own !! Hope you share your Ballerina - wouldn't like to try that one msylef!! Take Care Esther xx
You are doing a fantastic job Netty. I love all the new things you are learning. Way to challenge yourself..
Wow, this is fabulous! Love the colors, the energy, all the details - beautiful!
You conquered this challenge Annette! Just beautiful!
Your gorgeous page disproves the old adage "less is more"!
The words you added, along with other details, makes the whole page POP!
Another beautiful work of Art.. Well done my friend..
Hugs, Linda
It is lovely, Annette and a great achievement. Pam is a very talented and respected artist. How wonderful to be doing her online class..I have a little envy, I must admit.

Fantastic Netty, beautiful journal page and congrats on finishing another week
take care for now and have a great week
June
Love your journal page!
I keep meaning to take a creative leap and start the art journal I'm always thinking about...
Hands are the hardest thing to draw. This page is lovely!
Netty, you are so brave, taking these online courses. I feel that I would probably fail to understand what was required. I think you will probably be inventive about the arms and legs of the ballerina.
Your journal pages here are delightful and very pretty.
I always love a bit of drawing on a face - pretty pictures - and you've done this marvelously well.
The transformation is amazing, luv it GF
Wow, fantastic page.
