A little collage, a little watercolor,
not very many words added to
my journals this week...
above, a collage made from scraps
of my painted and doodled papers.
It's mostly just about the
happy color.
I changed the look of my blog this
week. It has had a black background
with white lettering since I started
blogging in 2008. The beige
background is a big change.
I really loved the contrast
of my work against black, but I'm
told it's not a great background for
visibility. I hope this works out,
because I don't think I know how
to change it back!
Above, a watercolor and
Sharpie pen. The idea was to
create decorations for a wedding
album, but I think this may be too
large. ( It's about 7 in. x 7 in.)
The heavy black outline
is to give myself a bit of
"wiggle room" when I cut this out
for the scrapbook page. If the
scrapbook owner likes it, there
will be more to come. Or maybe
I will make a color copy and
reduce it in size...
Linking to Art Journal Every Day over
at Balzer Designs. It's always fun
to see what others are putting
in their journals!
I really like "Dance to the beat." It is colorful and full of rhythm.
ReplyDeleteBut I just read the Journal 52 prompt for this week, which is "perspective," and I think your "SMILE" is full of perspective, from the staircase to the doorway. I could go on and on, because I see so many things that demonstrate perspective. But I know you saw them, too. This is a beautiful entry.
I hope the client likes the flowers, because they are a joy to behold!
Love your doodles and pages. White definitely works best in the backround I think so don't worry about changing again :)
ReplyDeleteI really like all three pieces, but the doodled pieces kept me looking for a long time. Very colorful and interesting.
ReplyDeleteI like your pages - lovely color and texture! I like a light colored background, too.
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of collage and watercolor - you have beautiful pages!
ReplyDeleteLove how light and free you are with your colors and doodles! I wish I could work in a more loose fashion. Maybe one day! The watercolor bouquet is awesome. Your skills are excellent with florals. :-)
