JAN 31st Toon Tuesday On Fire!

Hello there Journal & Friends,




The pain pills have kicked in, and hubby made it through the night without me murdering him in his sleep. Yeah, I was a tad bit grumpy yesterday. :-D

So on to the fun stuff! Last week I posted a free download of a WordBubble doodle (here, if you missed it) 
and today I'm showing my finished doodle. If you'd like to share yours, I invite you to leave a link in the comments to where we can see it.


Here's how mine looked, nekkid of color:



My first pass with the blue family:


Almost done:







Finished, before final varnish (it's hard to photograph with the glare of varnish):



I hope you enjoyed playing around with yours... I liked what Mamajulianna called it... a stress buster. :-D

When I get my new video camera, I plan to do another one. That was fun!

As I discover who played along, I'll add them here, so it'll be easier to visit them and see all the variations:

For you artsy fartsy types, if you'd like more details on materials and method and all that, I invite you to visit my art blog by clicking on link under the pic below. I'll be posting all the deets there later tonight.


                               

From Dr Phil's book: "You can create an internal dialogue that is healthy, constructive, and joyful."

My verse for today: "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power."

My quote for today: "If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing." --Marc Chagall

Enjoy the Journey,

Loretta

Of course, you colored yours way better than I did mine. But that's OK, I had fun playing with the word bubble & I was much less obsessive about it than a book cover. Which is good, because I'm too swamped to get sidetracked this month. I find cover & little art projects to be a great stress release.

I'll be posting up your bubble on my blog tomorrow with what I did. I chose the word, "Bold".

Hope you recover and heal quickly, Loretta. Hugs.
