DH - across the sound, Bein Sgritheall (that hill!)
painted papers, found papers, my little drawings of houses in the village (mine's at the top ;)
an interpretation of the sea, my carved stamps on scraped acrylic
an interpretation of a rainbow, my torn ribbon stitching!
my version of a landscape, monoprinting & scratching
DH - Isle Ornsay Lighthouse (ok, it's a mile away ;)
DH - stream by the house (we removed a neighbors house - well it wasn't there when we built!)
DH - boats passing down the Sound
My garden?
simple stamping
my simple tree sketch
recognise this? printed it off too big by mistake & thought 'perfect!'

DH - across the bay to the Sound

swallows on the wire
There you have it. I really enjoyed it once I'd got going.
Sad to see it go, maybe I'll do one for me, now I know I can.

What a treasure, no wonder you're reluctant to part with it.
What a gorgeous piece of artwork! I can see why you are so sad to see it go!
What a wonderful sketchbook- really beautiful stuff in there. Maybe I will see it here in Seattle.
At least you have all of these photos of it. Wonderful work. I didn't know your DH was an artist too. Well done!
Gorgeous sketchbook, I was sad to see mine go too!
what a wonderful sketchbook!!!
it's so sad, that it must travel so far away from you - but soon so many, many people can have a look to it. great!
Wonderful - a kaleidoscope of your life there!
Yeah! you finished!!! And it's BEAUTIFUL!
It will be a show stopper. I love the cover. I had a vinyl cover. I hope what I put on the front of it stays on...the bar code wouldn't stick. I put a note on it asking for it to be replaced.
Your husbands sketches are so good and your colors and fun make the sketch book a visual treat. Well done!

Well done for getting it finished. It is beautiful and the combination of your DH's sketches and your textured work is excellent. You'll have to do another one to keep.
Wow. Its beautiful, especially like the monoprinted landscape and the postcard from Heaven's Ocean. I just finished my sketchbook today. Skin of the teeth springs to mind! Glad to get it finished and sent off. Have a nice weekend over there.

What a fabulous sketchbook & a great collaboration - well done both!
Also wanted to let you know my prize parcel arrived - thanks so much - lots of treasures to make art with.
Gorgeous sketchbook! At least you have photos of it before you send it off, it looks amazing! :) x
I'm not surprised you're sad to see it go - it is lovely - it is nice to know others will enjoy it too
Oh, Emma, this is so fantastic! I love the variety and the two sensibilities in the same journal! Isn't it odd sending it out? I felt lost, but like you and someone else I know, I immediately started a new one just for me! It was a great exercise, wasn't it? I hope to see yours in person in San Francisco!
This journal looks wonderful. A great collaboration. I will look for it when it comes to Brooklyn!
love these sketches they are excellent
Emma, this is so filled with goodness! I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to catch up and see it. You and DH ROCK!
It's so hard to let it go, isn't it?
