cute pam showed up with her paint in a giant lasagne pan. i thought she brought snacks. but no! it was fun lollipop colored paints. muffin tins with big creamy smooshes of lovely & amazing color. i didn't know whether to grab a spoon or a paint brush.
sigh. shiver. smile.
i was dumbstruck.
and terribly excited.
how good it is to partake in art communion with a friend! i don't do it often enough. of course if we could keep our traps shut for longer than 30 seconds at a time we might've gotten a lot more pages done. yack yack yack. yadda yadda blah blah. i enjoyed every minute. it was dark when she climbed back into her chariot and headed home.
i didn't take NEARLY enough photos. too busy laughing and painting kooky portraits of each other. DO NOT underestimate the amount of rip roaring fun you can have (without smoking any dope) doing this.
a day of enchantment.
through & through.
i can't wait to get back into my big visual journal tomorrow and move more of that creamy bright paint around the pages.
Love! Nothing better than an art day with friends! 🙂
XOOXOXO
Love both you and Pam! Can only imagine how much fun it would’ve been to be part of that! 🙂
every picture was ‘envy’ worthy!!! Swooon………….

Ooh, that outdoor studio, how yummy! Of course if I would do that where I live the papers would be flying and so would all the other supplies, there’s just too much wind around here. It wouldn’t even stay on the table long enough to take a picture of it. I sure looks cute and wonderful though and…it looks like you had a wonderful time, which obviously you had! 😉
MMMMMMMMmmmmmmGood! Now THAT is good lasagne! I can taste it all the way over on the Northeast coast!
I love to hear about friends enjoying a day together; I’m very happy for you two. These are the days
we remember.
I can so relate to the fun of sharing art with a good friend. Nothing better on earth! I would say better then good sex even. ;o))))
What fun! So glad you two got together. Thanks for sharing, and for the inspiration!
I can totally relate. My mum actually insists on rip roaring fun without the aid of any substance.
wow, those colors are lush…a painting-drawing-journaling-doodling marvelous party! thanks for sharing…
That table of supplies looks like heaven on earth! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE getting together to art journal with a friend…the hours just slip away! SO wonderful that you and Pam had a day to play! Two incredible artists in the same spot creating = pure magic…
xo
OH MY GOODNESS! I just wanted to sit down at that table and play!
i can not get over your beautiful patio with all that room! and the art table is so amazing-how much fun!!!! wish i could of been there!
I have a journaling group, and we get together 3-4 times a year for 4 days at a time to journal. You are right about rip-roaring, non-dope-smoking fun to be had with a bunch of friends all art journaling together! The laughter and chatter and color of the tables is the best!
Hahahahahahaha. Sister!!!! Thats my digireedoo!!! The baseball bat is next to the bed inside. Sometimes I like to do a little mock batting practice in the middle of the night.
This post is so yummy I could eat it!
Wow! What fun you must have had! Love all the bright colors on your pages too.
Looks like you had a ton of fun!!!! What type of paints can you put into a tin like that and not have them dry up???? Wonderful colors…. lollypops indeed!!!
Yowsa sister that looks like some fun. LOVE the drawings you did of each other. I can smell the paint and crayons from here.
P.S. is that big long bat behind the gate for protection? Angie would so approve of that!
