Summer of Colo(u)r - Week 5



So it's already week 5 of the Summer of Colo(u)r! Only one more week to go. (If you haven't heard of the Summer of Colo(u)r, click on the button in the sidebar which will take you to Kristin's website and give you all the details and the link-up.)

This week the palette was 2 greens and a pink. I used two acrylics and an ink to produce this journal page. The journalling reads: Whatever the season, plant seeds. You never know what will grow.

It was inspired by my garden, which all through the hot summer showed a lot of bare earth. At the first rain of the winter season green sprang up from I don't know where! And it's the same in life - you plant 'seeds', but you don't know when they might germinate. It might not be the right season just yet, but plant them anyway, because when the right conditions come along, they spring up.
