So this week's prompt at The Documented Life project was to add someone else's artwork to our journal page. That was tricky, considering I really don't like other people messing with my Art Journals! But then I realized exactly what to do: I'd add a copy of some of my mom's artwork to the page. So that's what I did.
My mom's artwork is the center cut-out portion--of the girl and two flowers. I added more flowers, extended her pony tail a bit, stamped on some butterflies and added some dots here and there to kind of suggest spring rain. It's that time of year, my favorite season will soon be upon us, so this seemed perfect in lots of ways.
And I love this page, because my mom and I used to do art together--whenever we lived close enough to each other to do so. I sure miss those days. And I love it because it's a little piece of her inside my art journal. She's probably the only person (outside of maybe my grandkids) who I'd let draw in my art journal. I only wish she was here to do it for me.
