Inspired by azaleas

You can't compete with the brilliant colors of azaleas. I was inspired by the New York Botanical Garden's virtual tour this Mother's Day. Here's the result of the inspiration on my journal page.

Inspired by a finished art journal

I love finishing a journal that has documented three years of my life! So full of yummy pages! My life is starting a new chapter, so time to finish this one and start a new journal. This journal was new for me --regular sketch paper that needed some gesso, or not, to get started. Pages that may or may not lay flat because there are no binding rings. And thickness building up on one side, making it challenging but also very unique. I hope you feel the same satisfaction of filling up your journal and then revisiting the pages and times you had creating them.

This is a Canson ArtBook 180 sketchbook.
