Stacked Circles

More turtle heads just keep popping out...and the pop

 of pink is a welcome addition to the late summer garden.  

And our Seven Sons flower tree is blooming.

 I recently finished the little series in my art journal....it started with 

this circle watercolor that I cut up and stacked on the pages. I first wrote about it here: https://joyfulputtering.blogspot.com/2023/07/start-somewhere.html

I worked this last page at the end of my COVID run where I had scribbled some of my symptoms in white paint.  My fineline applicator was a little clogged....so it didn't flow that well...but that was OK and seemed quite fitting actually.  When it was dry I went over it with a light wash of watercolor.

I had made this little circle piece using the white acrylic paint...then filled the circles in with watercolor and a little gold shimmer accent.  I thought the colors and shapes worked well with the theme.

I didn't necessarily want it in the middle.....

...so it landed in the lower corner and I add the papercut to balance out the page.  I think it all good enough for a personal art journal....and all the pieces and parts have meaning.  

Here's the completed stacked circle series: 

pages one and two

three and four

five and six

seven and eight.  

A dozen or more pages left in this journal....and there's no hurry.
