Artful Adventures Stroll Challenge - Day 9 - Plantlife

The prompt for todays stroll challenge is "Plantlife". I have a small but fabulous garden, and this year the tulips have been incredible. I didn't take photo's this year unfortunately because there are probably double what you see in this compilation photo from last years garden. I have these wonderful tall yellow tulips that change just a bit every day and end up quite orange. For my journal page, I played with acrylic paint and a sponge to create the background, then acrylic brush strokes and tombow markers for the tulips. The quote from Socrates is: "The secret to change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new"
