Art Journal Journey - August Nature's Wonders

I'll give Gill right, I am amazed constantly how we sometimes abuse our nature and it survives so we still can see the most beautiful flowers and wonderful birds and they can find food in the heart of our big cities.

and a little red to brighten it up a bit.

Rapunzel

Here is my suggestion for the techniques I have tried in Ever After the first month. Tamara Laporte, Andrea Gomoll and Annie Hamman are fantastic to show their own style. I have taken different techniques and displayed them on my interpretation of the fairy tale Rapunzel ...
