Journal Cover - Growth

Hi everyone!

On my last live stream I painted my 'repurposed' journal covers. I have finally finished another journal!!!

So today we used soft colours in greens and blues and added some ceecee 'pretties' flowers to finish it. Although by the time I added the flowers I didn't know what the title would be until I finished the stream and thought about it. That's when I came up with the title 'GROWTH'. Growth being how we grow in our art from practise.

You can watch the full live stream recording on my YouTube channel by CLICKING HERE.
