Ro Bruhns Art Journal Class......

What a sensational class !!!! I cannot think of a better way to have started the Art Retreat than doing an altered book class with our very own uber talented Ro Bruhn. We have such talent here in Australia.... This is my first page.... think I may have tried too many techniques on the one page here (he hee), but boy did I have fun putting this together. Ro taught us so many wonderful techniques, many of them recycling things from around the home to make stamps, create collage papers and more....
I was happier with my second page. Love using the serviettes in collage (and Ro supplied us with a huge variety of beautiful serviettes to use). Then lots of overlaying, stencilling, stamping, painting....
Page 3. The colours on this page reminded of a trip I had to Italy. Love the images which I cut up to give it a funkier look.
Page 4...... not finished yet as I want to include a photo of the lovely Ro on this page. Simple page this one, with just a wash of paint and some ink, a piece of another of Ro's beautiful nakpkins and some pieces of her collage papers. I will add some other images to these pages and maybe some doodling and words a bit later.
This is a lovely photo I took of my dear friends Dot and Shirley with Ro in our class. We girls had the BEST time in Ro's class. Ro is a very warm and generous soul. Unfortunately the photo taken of Ro and myself is a little blurred (but you've seen enough of me lately).

Thank you Ro for a wonderful class and to my friends Shirl and Dot for making this such a memorable weekend of art bliss.

More photos to come soon of my classes with the delightful Misty Mawn and Traci Bautista.....

Wishing you a beautiful Sunday......
