Sketchbook-April Whooping Cranes

    The branching out here is that I actually managed to make this page while on the road! Well - I did wait til I was home to add the stamped ghost (white) bird images. blogged at www.keepanartjournal.com

      Is that an actual vintage newspaper? I LOVE using vintage newspaper and other ephemera in my work. I love this! I love the typography and the illustrations in the newspaper contrasted by your own work. I LOVE this, did I mention that already?

      I love this too. I really like how you have placed the birds. they really look like ghosts.

      Me too, and you did it in the car? Hope you weren't driving at the time. Just kiddin ;-). I think your style of journaling could be very healing for me. I'm going to try some pages like this and see where it goes. Thanks so much for showing your work and for the great blog about your tree of life. Inspiring!

      Nice job! I love the antiqued and ghostly feel of it!

      @ Susan. No not an actual vintage newspaper. A replica of an actual front page...a brochure or handout at one of the NE visitor centers. It was very realistic. Thanks for the comments all. Lori W at Art Camp for Women
