Index Card Finale

A little drawing every day....

keeps the monsters at bay.

Remember...

what is your story?

Another Art Journal

As I've mentioned before, I have several

art journals going at once...

this one was given to me by a dear friend

who saw it at a yard sale, and thought

it would be perfect for me.

So I am enjoying this little journal,

which is roughly 8" x 5."

The pages above utilize photocopies

of some drawings I did several

years ago, along with pen drawings

direct to page.

I tore out a few pages to make extra

room for collage pages,

which can get bulky after a few

accumulate in the journal.

The paper is rather like manilla paper,

so is probably not acid-free,

but I'm enjoying it anyway!

Not everything we do  has to be archival...

pages above, watercolor and

Sharpie pen. Below, collage with

assorted papers, watercolor,

fabric and Sharpie pen.

What will you be when you grow up?

Some of us are still considering...



Collage Fodder

Painted cardstock to be used as collage fodder-
watercolor and gel pen.
These will probably be torn or cut
and applied to collages...
maybe art journal pages, atc's, moo cards,
or in whatever project they can add
some color and texture.
