The mountain

 

Today I'm joining Jo, our host this month at Art Journal Journey.  I have named this The Mountain.

As some of you might know, Jo's theme is Nature.  I even have two detail shots.
 

I started by tearing book pages to form the mountain.  I actually started this last month, but it took forever to assemble the mountain to my liking.  I then colored it with three colors of water soluble crayons.  I just hope it looks like a mountain to others, too.

Next I created the sky using two blue and one yellow water soluble crayons.  Finally, I gave the journal page its name by creating ransom style letters. 
 
Bleubeard and I are so very pleased you joined us and hope to see you at Art Journal Journey as you share your own interpretation of Nature.
 

I have my own mountain to talk about.

Here's a sneak peak showing my mountain.  Stop by Friday Smiles tomorrow to see what I'm talking about.

I love the mountain you created - and hope you can climb/defeat the other one in your life.

Very, very clever, I love this!
Could you do me a favor, please? Blogger won´t let me comment at Jo´s anymore, no matter which browser I use! Could you let her know? I do pop in, but... not a chance to say a word.
Looking forward to see what´s going on with your real mountain.

I like your mountain. It definitely looks like one. :) And is that a pile of loam or compost? I hope that mountain isn't ripped up paving material. Have a great Thursday. hugs-Erika
