Autumn

 

Bleubeard and I are back with what should have been a really quick entry for Art Journal Journey.  In the end, it turned out not so quick, but at least every bit of it was Recycled, Repurposed, or Reused, which just happens to be our theme this month. 

I named it Homage to Autumn because it reminds me of one of those roads where my friend Erika might walk in autumn.

First, a couple of detail shots:

I began by gluing an old (2015) calendar page to a used file folder to give it stability.  While that was drying, I fussy cut the car from a magazine that was several years old.  I then affixed it to the background at an angle that I hoped appeared to be the size and angle of the tire tracks. To complete the page, I used my white Posca pen to write the words on a circle left over from a previous project.  My adhesive was new and so was the ink from the pen.  Other than that, everything was either repurposed or recycled.

Bleubeard and I are thrilled you dropped by today and hope to see what you have recycled, repurposed, or reused using our theme at Art Journal Journey.
