ART JOURNAL 2018

There is a family portrait under the flaps on the left. The tissue paper with donuts is from joggles.com. Family get togethers are all about the food !!!!




The mandala I did a while ago and is adhered to a water color tag,also from joggles.com.The card on the right is in with an elastic, and is from my sister-in-law (Roger's sister).

 The bough on the left is from an ad for Pontine Theatre. The left will have a doodle type drawing of a grapevine wreath. The windows in the studio and front porch now are dressed for the short days.
