Jumping for Joy

I am suddenly feeling so much better (I may have already told you that, lol) and have at last got some energy and I cannot tell you how good it feels, so thought I might as well do a journal page about it...


I'm down in Essex so only have limited art supplies with me, Paperartsy Fesco paints available from here, using the finger painting method, and I'm so into these fabulous Stampotique stamps, dontcha just love 'em, get them from here.  Finished off with my wonderful Portofino crayons (sorry an in joke with my friends).

I shall be returning home tomorrow evening because on Thursday I'm off to AFTH to a workshop with Dy, painting faces, right out of my comfort zone.  I've tried so many times and just can't do it, but Dy has assured me that I can, no such word as can't.

Edit :  For the eagle eyed of you, I'm obviously not on top form quite yet, my daughter (who doesn't 'get' my art work), has noticed that I've put 17 April 2011 and of course it should say 17 May, what a dork!!!
