Changes in Ocean scene and New Journal page

Paint Party Friday is a fun place to play and visit.  Each artist has something to show and teach. The videos are so informative.  Be sure to visit as many artists as you can each week.  Thank you Kristin and Eva for hosting and being so much a part of our fun, learning and teaching experiences.

I added pebbles and a birds.

I used pastels on most of the picture.  The bird is drawn with Prismacolor black pen .005 and prismacolor pencils.  

I appreciated the comments and suggestions. I think this looks much better. My seagull now has a mate. If you follow my other blog, you will see some of the different birds I've been photographing. They are new to the canal I walk to every day.

 The Documented Life Project Art Journal is progressing.  I finally caught  up and completed Weeks 6 and 7.  First we had to take a Pinterest picture for inspiration.  I choose a cottage (picture included in far left bottom corner). Since I am still looking for it and it is still in my heart, this picture spoke to me.

We had to use a symbol over and over.  Those hearts represent the number of years I've been dreaming, hoping and looking for the yellow cottage.  I used pastels and prismacolor pencils.  I only drew part of the house.

Picture is from Tammy Northrup's blog, My Flower Journal and it is a picture of a cottage at Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Blessings,
