Nine Faces Emerge

opening to the hidden faces

rising from the textured background of these pages

i feel intrigue

a bit of surprise

included is delight

if you read my last post:

i took a Moleskine Art Journal to Italy

was greatly disappointed in the quality of the pages

yet the pages i had prepared with gesso

held up fine to water techniques, like the one above

also I am sharing two frescoes I photographed in Italy:

Joining 29 faces late

creating art was abundant while in Italy

I found that nine faces.... took quite some time to create

Lovely Thursday and beyond to you~

Ciao from Italy~

I am visiting my sister and family in Italia

I love the frescoes on the buildings!

 I also love making art with my niece Sofia

maybe she will let me share her art in another post ~

for now I will share the art I find on buildings here

the painting at the top of this post.... I did in a Moleskine journal

I use to LOVE Moleskine Sketch journals

I hear: the Italian's sold the company to China,

though the paper looks similar, it is garbage! 

Any wet art supply and it warps like a wave in a storm. 

I will not buy another journal from them unless the makers improve the paper!

I simply wanted to share with you my experience with the paper.

Ciao my lovely art friends
