I've been on a roll with journal art for the past week or two. I really hope it lasts, at least long enough to finish this short journal, lol. This is another spread for the Journal52 prompts (here are skulls and stitched themes). They've been really helpful since I am totally not a word journaller and sometimes look at a blank page for ages before I decide what to actually paint. The prompts help.
It's been really nice to be off of work too. Once I came back from vacation, I decided to take some time to make art for me. I tried to jump right back into work but it just wasn't working. LOL. And I so rarely take any time off. It's always work, work, work. And I love my work (since I get to paint and draw for that too) but sometimes... you know.. Anyway, the quiet time only last until August 1. One more glorious weekend of freedom! I will drink beer to celebrate.
Fantastic piece! Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun piece - love all the color. I know what you mean about not using words in the art journal. Hope you enjoy your upcoming weekend!
