Crappy Work Days

I really had no intention of putting much effort into today's icad if you really wanna know the truth. I really wasn't too enthusiastic. I attribute this partly to my crazy, crappy work day. So, I used this card I had done watercolor swirls on and took a pen and wrote how I was feeing in circles and then I wrote again the other way. I just wrote myself in circles. lol. Then I took some spray paint to give it some more color and drowned it enough so when I added some oil pastels the paper was soggy enough it started to rip.Ok. That's about how my day went. Too dark. I added some white gesso to lighten it up and give it some support. I was really trying to save it at this point. Still needed something. Ah. A stamp. Too dark. Needed some brightening. Maybe I was feeling a bit better. Ah. Red. I love red. I guess I did it. I wrote. I painted. I played. I showed up. Did you? Thanks for visiting.
