Hominidae, hominina, human, human species...what a joke! I can't laugh about it:((

Create...Creation...

It wasn't by a big bang... that's another pathetic joke I can't laugh about. So they're still killing, searching and constantly watching and trolling the skies...LOL...They want to know how we did it;))

Draw it #2

It is all about the Creation and they wonder, searching how we did it😀 What we make is eternal! All they make is useful for just a short time, so all they make is rubbish!!, nasty and dirty. How can you think about making something that isn't everlasting and one with Mother Earth? These nasty idiots dump it all in the oceans! The oceans, Mother Earth and the air are disgusted by their clutter, but the Universe knows what to do with idiots.

Another handmade postcard for another swap partner. Sometimes I create an art journal page with the measurements of a postcard, which normally are 4x6". That's why you'll see some kind of journaling on the background of these postcards. It isn't my intention to write a message to the receiver, because most of what I write are personal thoughts, messages and ideas. So most of the time I will write on the base of the postcard, but then add different mediums/media to the base of the postcard, on top of my journaling and the journaling will be hidden. Some times I'll add text on top of the page; it all depends on my feelings thoughts and ideas at the moment of creating.

postcard recipe:
card board ~ recycled
van bleijswijck gesso ~ white
van bleijswijck acrylic paints ~ primary yellow, magenta, dark green, brilliant green, brown, titanium white

Draw it ~ finished project

I used a flower stencil, a circle stencil, designer card stock and matte acrylic paints (brilliant green, dark green, turquoise, primary yellow and magenta) to create the background.

Draw it

I love this art journal page too much, so despite of me not keeping I will keep this one for myself. So yes, this one is a keeper😊 I will start another postcard for my partner, which I have to send even though I will like it:))

This postcard is in progress, so I will do a future blog post on the finished project.

This is my second attempt to draw a postcard. This time I took a much safer route and drawn a flower. I have to admit that I like this postcard too, but I won't keep it. I can't keep them all, right?
