With the end of school, I have been able to spend more time with art and photography. There are so many challenges and projects I want to take part in this month and all summer for that matter.
The Artist's Way
I am taking part in a reading/sharing of "The Artist's Way". For the next 2 weeks we will be focusing on Chapter 1. (see Happy Snappy for more info).
Morning pages are sporadic still, but I hope to start new routines with the first full week of my holidays tomorrow.
My artist date this past week has been giving myself more time with creating art. We also visited a nursery and I had such fun photographing gorgeous flowers.
Summer of Colour - Yellow
This past week the colour yellow was the focus at "Twinkle Twinkle".
I did the usual colour collage, but with the colour paint strips, instead of adding just white to each row, I added different colours to create new colours. Lots of fun.
I also did a small painting from a sunflower photo I had taken. I am going to do a whole series of these this summer.
Calendar Challenge
I finally completed the July calendar for the challenge at the Kathryn Wheel . I used a lot of yellow!
ATCs
With the postal strike over, I had to quickly finish ATCs for several swaps.
Zentangles
Book backgrounds
Photography
As usual, skies and flowers predominated this week:
Have a wonderful week! Happy Independence Day!

Love your yellow collage and some great ATCs too. The Artists Way is one of my favourite books but I still struggle with the morning pages too, I find it difficult to keep up.

You got lots done this week. I was impressed with your calendar pages. Not sure I've seen one quite like yours before. But that's the fun of visiting and seeing all the different styles, which I'm loving.
Loving your calendar page - the yellow is so summery! Well done for keeping up so far. Half way already!
