When I woke up this morning and looked outside, I saw a typical Dutch sky…
Blue sky, white clouds, the sun was shining and wind was blowing
so the first thing that came to mind was: LAUNDRY DAY!
When I closed my eyes,
I saw images like this

Sweet dreams…
This is more
what it looks like
over in my little
backyard!
(Only I have
white sheets
hanging on the
drying frame
right now.)
Between washing and hanging laundry, I finished the Leonard Cohen
Art Journal page I started this weekend.
This page is inspired by lyrics of the song “The Future”
Used materials:
Heavy gel medium (shiny)
Acrylic paint.
Cut out circles from patterned paper
Dictionary paper
Black sharpie
Detail:
“Repent”
(“Repentance” =
“berouw” in Dutch)
I bought the gel
medium last week,
and I’m very
content with it!
I like its texture –
see the strokes
of the brush?
OK now, this is it for today.
Off to take the dry clean sheets from outside and put them back on the bed.
(I love sleeping between clean sheets that smell like wind and blue skies!)
I’ll be back on Friday with a brand new Lotus Paperie lay out; you too?
Je t’embrasse.
