Dance in the Rain

Welcome friends,

- November Mood - 

we all know the dismal moments in life, where nothing goes right and everything 
 is gray and dark.
In this mood I have made this new Art Journal page. Life is not always colorful and cheerful, the other side is one of them.
 But without those dark moments, we sometimes can not appreciate the good things in life, or?



          I have used some DecoArt Fluid Acrylics carbon black, cerulan blue and titanium white

                               these colors can also be very well diluted with water
 

crackle effect with Metallic silver + crackle paint white in the left bottom corner
the girl with umbrella was painted from me( deliberately faceless)


 stencil 'Children' from DecoArt with script stamp



I also used Shimmer Mister White
 actually, it should only be a few discreet raindrops, but the spray head has decided ;-)
 that it will be other and yes it was a surprise OMG ! :-) puddles,
 but I did as a child also gladly splashes in puddles and fits perfectly


and so I created in a sadly mood a new page
 with optimismus and the splashes make me smile again


Best wishes from Kerstin
