Janie's "Nature" makes its debut.

The initiation of my journal for the Round 7 travelling journal. I changed my mind from Australiana to Nature to make it, even more, broader for your imaginations to flow. This year I have chosen a smaller journal to work in. It is 8" high by 5 inches wide when shut. You will all be working on a double spread of 8"x10" in landscape. If anyone wants to add an extra flap, there is plenty of spare pages. Thank you for looking: Janie O'Brien

This is the outer cover which is a linocut of pandanus palm from where I live in far north Queensland.
 These are common along our shores.
 I photocopied it onto deli paper. It turned out well.

The actual journal itself inside the named cover with some collaged elements

My first collage comprises fussy cut fungi against a background of torn papers and tissue.

My second collage depicting various heliconia flowers seen in most far north Queensland gardens, together with a lovely purple & pink hibiscus.
