A change of pace as I try to catch up with Astrid's Round Robin Journal. This page is for Heidi, and is a re-working of an idea I had while I was in Spain earlier this year. It's quite simple, but reflects an area that I am exploring in my artwork at the moment. Please excuse the pretension of that last remark, but I do seem to get obsessed by a certain technique or style and have to work through it to get it out of my system. The only thing is, I realised when I had nearly finished that the last thing of mine Heidi had sent to her for a swap was a mermaid too. She will think I'm obsessed, but I'm not - only in so far as I like all things slightly fantastical and I love the colour!! I do wonder if it is really suitable for a journal page and if it wouldn't look better as a wall hanging but hey ho, I've done several now with clay bits and nobody has moaned yet, though how big their finished books will be is anybody's guess!
Welcome to the ramblings of a 60 something wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend and crafty individual..........

This is absolutely stunningly brilliant! I love it! I don't care how thick my book ends up, so if Heidi doesn't like it, (which unfortunately I'm quite sure she will), you can always send it to me - hehe!
I love this Cindy, every time I see someone has created a mermaid I have to show Georgina, she adores them. Belinda
