Allegiance to the UK

Imagine my surprise this morning when I realized I didn't have anything for Friday Smiles.  I still have company for another day, but I woke sick as a dog.   So not only did I not have anything to share, my internet is slow, and my cough has taken over the fun I had planned for the day.

Instead, I decided to join Chris of Pear Shaped Crafting, our host this month at Art Journal Journey.   Her theme is Art for art's sake.

I dug out a piece of Tyvek and two Sharpies.

I cut the Tyvek into three strips and colored two of them.  Next, I created my background using my handmade shimmering mists.

I wove the three colors together 

and zapped it with my heat gun, which is a step I wish I hadn't taken.

I don't usually bring politics into my art, but after seeing the way Trump has bullied our allies in Europe and now the UK, I was appalled.

I HAD to stand up for my beliefs.  It reads:

This blogger stands with the UK.  
Trump thinks everything is a negotiation he must win.

I deeply apologize for not visiting my blogging friends, but hope this cough, sore throat, and allergies are only temporary.   I am once again grateful and delighted you chose to visit.  I also hope to see you at Art Journal Journey.
