Joy!

I am forever late for the More Than Words mini challenge. It sneaks up on you and only lasts for a week. This time I caught it. The word is Joy.



The background was made with transparent gesso through a stencil, acrylics and stamping for texture. The couple does not look overjoyed,  in old photos they rarely do - though the man does attempt a smile. Go have joy then!

  4. Beautifully done. I love your unsmiling couple. It is true that smiling wasn't the thing to do when photographs were taken. Great quote.
