I'm once again joining Erika aka BioArtGal who is hosting Art Journal Journey this month with her theme Vintage or Modern.
In this entry, I have returned to the 1920s, where I traveled through India on my motorbike.
It was time to write a postcard to my favorite aunt who lives in Cairo.
This is the only art I brought home with me, although I plan to frame it and give it to my aunt.
For this page, born in my imagination, I began by spritzing some of my handmade shimmering mists on 110 lb cardstock and allowing them to run. While the mists were drying, I colored the woman in red using water soluble crayons. Then I colored the black and white palm trees and river with more water soluble crayons. Even though it took a really long time, I was quite happy with how it turned out. I've now added it to my large art journal.Bleubeard and I are so happy you chose to join us today and hope to also see you at Art Journal Journey.
For Day 17, I'm also joining Art Every Day Month (AEDM) with another art journal spread.

I love this page Elizabeth! The colours and drippage from your sprays make a wonderful backdrop for your story! Hugs, Chrisx
Wow! What an adventurer you are... this is stunning. Love the drips and dribbles - so evocative. I'm sure the ripples in your life from that journey would have been multiple and would've had an effect on a lot of your life. Beautiful art and a beautiful country. Amazing, Elisabeth.

I love this one, Elizabeth! It fits the theme and the colors are great. Love the tree image, too!
That would be an amazing experience and I am so glad you were able to time travel here to 2018 and share this with us. (grin!) I love this lady. She is quite stylish and full of spunk. I can see her making this incredible trip. Thanks for sharing with us at AJJ too my friend. Happy start to your weekend. Hugs-Erika

Great journal page, I really should do more in my holiday journal. Thanks for the reminder.
I love it, Elizabeth! And I can imagine you traversing India on a motor bike, goggles and all ;-) Eileen xoxo
Oh wow I love this page. What a fabulous figure you cut on there. Your story is much better than the one I am trying to weave and I enjoyed our short stay in India.
