I had one.
A day dream.
About a face.
A face in the middle of a great big canvas.
Painted with strong colors.
And rays of bright colors extending from the face.
I was haunted with the thought.And on the lookout for more inspiration.
Then I found this sketch from a few days earlier.
I knew it went with the day dream.
A page in my Visual Journal.
I never finish without thinking about do-overs.
But that is the great thing about journal pages.
You love them anyway.
And who knows, I may revisit this day dream.
Have a great week.
Enough for now,
Sharon
You may think it needs a do-over but I like it just the way it is. Love the bright colors you've used.

This is great Sharon, a slightly different style again, but lovely just the same. Maybe we should all listen to our dreams more often.
ReplyDeleteI love your DAY DREAM painting !

I looked at this last night and was too sleepy to even tell you how much I love it. So I had to come back first thing this morning and tell you: I love it! The depth and texture particularly in the the collar and face... I'd really love to see this again in one of your paintings. And guess what: This week I actually started writing on my journal pages too!
ReplyDeletehow beautiful! I love that it is in your journal, gives it a whole other deminsion
ReplyDeleteVery nice blog with great paintings!
ReplyDeleteSharon, as usual you take the gentle reader on an awesome journey through your day dreams

ReplyDeleteI am playing catch up and read your many wonderful posts.
ReplyDeleteI love this painting...that collar is just wonderful...the colors and the dimension is amazing.
Sharon,
ReplyDeleteCome back and visit again, if you have time. I posted more autumn leaves. It's so pretty here today. I wish you were sitting on that bench by the pond, sharing it with me.
Love,
Alberta
This is stunning Sharon. And I love reading about your creative process!
