I made some progress on my bead journal for June.  I managed to sit outside and enjoy some stitching and some sunshine yesterday.    That is complete and utter bliss for me.  I really do count myself as blessed to be to that.   I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.com/

I while ago I did an embroidery challenge and created the background for this.  It was not remarkable but I am not one to waste something.  It wasn't intended for a background but I think it works for this collage.  I covered most of it and that makes it better.  I love the wool fabric base and it will work in my collage book perfectly.

Can you see any resemblance to the fabric I posted last week?  I really liked that fabric but knew I had to take it further.  I got out my paints and just had so much fun adding colour.  It is so much more interesting.  What will I do with it now?  Quilt it?  Bead it?

I am still enjoying looking at the beautiful street art that we saw in Mexico. I so enjoy seeing all the talent of artists.  I can appreciate the creativity of all artists.  I don't always like the art of all artists but that's okay.   I am linking to  http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/

This piece is coming along slowly but enjoyably.  I have started adding beads and that is a favourite thing to do.  I am hoping that I can sit outside and do some more beading/stitching today.  Oh, how I love enjoying the sunshine and stitching.  Actually, I have been taking my journal outside and enjoying that as well.  Making art of any kind outside is very satisfying.

These little collages are quick and fun to create.  They will all come together to make an interesting journal of this crazy time.  I would say they are not particularly reflective of this COVID time which is fine with me.  I don't need my art to be that.  My art-making is solace for my soul.  My art-making is something I HAVE to do and that is enough.

This piece of fabric jumped out at me today.  I am not sure that it is a work in progress.  I am not totally sure about it at all but I do like the stencilled gear pattern.  I am pondering cutting it up for collage or stitching into it.  Or both.  Or adding more paint.  I just got excited about adding more paint so I think that is the answer.
