This week's page uses just two colors - orange and blue. It's interesting to see what two colors, some watercolor paint and a gel pen can do to a blank piece of paper. Because I mixed wet into wet, I got some gorgeous neutral color on the page as well as the pure orange and blue. I am loving the way these two colors mix together. This gel pen is a new one - a nurse gave it to me when I brought someone to the hospital - I guess I really must have expressed how much I liked that pen! Once it was mine, I just knew I had to use it in my journal, and I knew just where to try it out.
One other thing I did differently on this page was to add a border. The page seemed so disconnected - the boxes were similar but not together and it just wasn't working for me. I decided to add this simple border to tie it all together and I am happy I did, even though it is a bit wonky.
Seems like concentric circles are showing up a lot in my art lately, too...
I put them all over the place on this page...
I might be doing even more with concentric circles soon, since I seem to like them so much.
I think I might be looking at just using two colors more often, too. I do like the neutrals on this page!
