Your art always inspires me. So pretty 🙂
I love your color choices!
Your pages are inspiring and encouraging. Somehow I lost my own momentum in art journaling. Great to see yours, such wonderful colours and looseness.
thanks laura! such a lovely complement!!!
Awesome pages! The top one and the bottom one are my favorites 🙂 Also, just wanted to let you know, I saw one of your pages on a tumblr blog about art journaling! (she credits the pic to you, she’s not claiming it as her own or anything like that) The tumblr blog has a ton of art journal pages from many different artists and is super inspiring, and I was excited to see at least one of your pages there! Here’s the link if you want to check it out http://artjournaling.tumblr.com/post/22606611915/by-a-girl-and-her-brush

Wendy shares several new art journal
pages in this post. The prints I bought from her Etsy shop encourage my new work, as I write in my notebooks. Ellen
I really am moved by pastel colors, they enrich life so very much, your site and your artwork is so very beautiful! To me i could really say it is breathtaking in nature. Ellen thanks for turning me on to such a wonderful site! And to Wendy thanks for the beautiful blessing this morning!

Every single page is a burst of energy!!!!
