The purple Cat dreams -- T stands for Tuesday & Art Journal Journey

Hola Corazones,


Espero que este mes sea muy feliz para tod@s !! Unas vacaciones prometedoras, y muchas visitas familiares y de amigos, pero con buenos momentos de relax y descanso también!!

Hoy os traigo una página de Art journal, la  segunda que hago en mi libreta-canvas, regalo de mi hijo.  Para crearla me he inspirado en el fabuloso tema que nos propone Chris este mes para Art Journal Journey :   "  We ´re all/going " . Y también me tomo mi Té con Bleubeard & Elizabeth, hoy es martes  claro, no podemos faltar !  Os invito a visitar sus preciosos blogs, porque están llenos de bellísimo Arte !

Estuve haciendo algunos fondos sobre papel de acuarela,  con esmalte de uñas , agua y tintas de alcohol. Si queréis, podéis ver el enlace que nos facilito Carol sobre esa técnica, visitando su precioso blog.
--------------------------------------------

I hope this mont is starting very happy for everyone ! A promisin holidays, and many visits from family and friends, but with good moments of relaxation and rest too.

Today I bring you an Art journal page, this is the second one I don in my canvas-notebook, a gift from my son. To create it, I was inspired by the fabulous theme that Chris proposes to us this month for Art Journal Journey :  " We´re all / going " And, I also take my Tea with Bleubeard & Elizabeth today, of course, it´s Tuesday , and we can´t miss !  I invite you to visit their wonderful blogs, because they are full of Gorgeous Art !!

I was preparing some backgrounds with watercolour paper, nail varnish, water and alcohol inks. If you want, you can see the video proposed by Carol about this technique, you can visit her wonderful blog.

Primero pegué dos hojas de mi Art journal, porque eran muy finas, y les añadí pintura acrílica  en amarillo, blanco y verde suave, y unos toques de chalk paint beige. Luego le añadí trozos de scrap, y del fondo que hice con esmalte de uñas y tintas de alcohol. Una vez bien seco,  dibujé un gato con un lápiz y lo "rellené" con  un bolígrafo con glitter morado. Añadí también un par de mariposas, una flor y un corazón rosa. Espero que os guste.
------------------------
First I glued two pages of my Art journal, because they were very thin, I added layers of acrylic paint, yellow, soft green and white, and also beige  chalk paint. Then I added  pieces of scrap and the background, that I made with nail polish and alcohol inks.  Once dry, I drew a cat with a pencil, and I "filled" it with a purple glitter pen. I also added two butterflies, a flower and a pink heart. I hope you´ll like it.




The butterflies and the flower have got the same colour of the cat.
Las mariposas y la flor tienen el mismo color que el gato.



















I´m going to Dream !!
Voy a Soñar !!

Art Journal Journey :





Here is my tea with biscuits, the purple cat and the container where my handmade flowers live.
Mi té con galletas, el gato morado y el recipiente dónde viven mis flores caseras.




Those photographs are from the "Paseo Marítimo" of Almería,  around the 20th April this year, a lovely day for walk and swim !

  2. Your journal page is beautiful. I love how you used different media on this, from the nail polish and alcohol inks to the glitter pen that you used to color in your cat and butterflies. This is a true beauty and a great first entry for Chris's theme at Art Journal Journey, too.

    Your tea and biscuits (we call then cookies in the states) go perfectly with your journal. Of course, I am jealous that you live so close to a beach. Lucky you, and great photos, too. Thanks for sharing your art, your walk on the beach, and your tea and biscuits with us for T this Tuesday, dear Caty,

  9. A sweet page and a great way to layer those watercolour pieces Caty, wouldn't life be so much more relaxing if we were all able to dream the day away like a cat especially with surroundings as beautiful as Almeria. Stunning.
    Creative wishes Tracey

  15. Your canvas page is wonderful. Yes, we're all going to dream. Dreaming is good for you apparently. People say that you always dream during the night but if you say you don't dream, it just means you don't remember them. I am one of those people. I never remember having dreamt. But last night I woke up feeling that I dreamt I had lost my mobile and had spent the whole night looking for it. What a relief to wake up and find it next to my bed!
    Almeria is lovely. We have only been there once for a few days. We must really visit again as we only live near Baza which a couple of hours away at most.
    Happy (belated) T-Day,
    Hugs,
    Lisca

  16. Your artwork is lovely, I love the Bg and the colours too, the cat looks as if he is watching patiently as cats do.
    The Paseo in Almeria looks lovely, they are such lovely places to walk and see the views.
    Happy T day
