Week 42 of my
Poetry Reimagined
project in my mixed media collage journal,
with inspiration from the autumn colours
& the unpredictable weather
we have been experiencing.
Along with the normal blustery October winds,
we have had heavy thundery rainfall
& hail followed by short bursts of sunlight
before the rain starts over again.
new signs loudly herald autumn come
leaves that swirl in blustery winds
rain falling on the sodden ground
we search for glimpses of blue skies and sigh
smiling briefly, remembering warmer, longer days
I used the following on this page
of my 7 Gypsies Spiral Book.
Daler-Rowney white Gesso Primer,
Liquitex Clear Gesso,
Dina Wakley Glazing Medium
(to enhance the colours of the butterfly),
the butterfly image is from The Graphics Fairy,
Faber-Castell watercolour pencils,
a Tim Holtz Paper Doll,
a magazine image (from Daphne's Diary)
& printed text.
