This is the cover of my latest journal. I had adhered the collage with glue stick (ugh...I hate gluesticks) and it started peeling off while I was out and about so I slapped some tape on it (both decorative and scotch tape). I would have never thought of doing this otherwise but I love the tape in a big X across the face. This is why I say never to fear mistakes in your journal...they only lead to discoveries.
still haven't figured it out...must sit and think about it one of these days.....still floating....
I have to admit..I kinda like this page (this is saying alot since this is a rare feeling for me). I'm thinking it is a combination of the blue color and the random design that appeals to me. I might have to make this into fabric through www.spoonflower.com
Boy am I loving using my new collage sheets!!! too much fun.
part 1 of a long journal spread...
part 2
Wendy Millward came to PLAY and sat directly across from me. We both share a love of interior design magazines. She takes them to a new level by pasting pages directly into her journal and then adding to them in this fashion. So I wanted to try my hand at it too. I want a room that looks just like this! part 2 is below.
2nd half. I don't think I'm done with this little side bar...perhaps a quote or something in the egg would make it feel done. That pillow belongs in this room but it wasn't proportional so it's sitting on the side.
Trying to play around with the idea that less is more. This is SO hard for me...there isn't much in my life where I practice restraint...
The funny thing about this little journal flap is that 2 days after I wrote it, I was meeting a friend for dinner. I decided to sneak in a little journaling time at the starbucks before the meeting time. As it turned out, there had been an accident that caused my friend to be really late. I ended up having a 3 hr. journaling session with my headphones on. Be careful what you write in your journal! LOL
Oh my, you just gave me an overdose of eyecandy... so much inspiration and questions to think about... that's a good thing - when art raises questions! Thanks for the loveliness you show!

ReplyDeleteTEESHA -
ReplyDeleteAmazing and beautiful work.
I have been wrestling with art goals, and trying not to have any so I can be free to do what I want, when I want. But that will only last so long for me. Goals can be very positive and helpful. You have accomplished so much with your art, and you are very generous for sharing it with us. Let us know when your goals develop. Thanks.

Was feeling the same way...Then while in an op/thrift shop the other day a woman handed me a book... "Simple Abundance by Sarah Ban Breathnach"... and as i opened it at the days date, i was amazed at the synchronicity of the words... i have begun a new Journal Journey methinks X:-) i ~Love~ how Life works like that <3
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog and wanted to say your journal pages are incredibly inspiring! I consider myself an artist but wish I had more of a creative and imaginative side to my style as you clearly showcase. Keep em coming! :)
