Now that I'm FINALLY getting out and about, I'm able to work pages like this that I have envied others doing for quite some time. I love the story telling aspect of pages like this. Sitting at home working on things I like, or playing with techniques and supplies, is just not quite the same (although it does tell about me as a person).
I had a full day and loved every minute of it. Came home and continued into the night to finish the two page spread and even this morning as I made up my mind what to place in the final corner of the spread.
First I had worked the top left and bottom right while actually sitting on location....minus adding the watercolor. Knowing I wouldn't finish the page, I took photos that I could refer back to in order to add to the other two corners. The last thing I decided on was the bottom left. I could have included other things from the class or location I went to for it but remembered I had stopped at the art shop before the class. Thought that would be perfect to include.

Wow, you did have a full day! You captured some nice memories on these pages.
I don't think I could be an artist's model either!
I might make a humorous model cowering under the chair.........LOL.
