I haven't had a lot of dedicated time at my art desk lately but the time I have spent there has been very productive and a little bit scattered with nothing quite being "done"
some fun new airbrush paints I tried in my new Strathmore journal - with some quick random doodling still in progress. a page in my wine journal - painted with the labels glued in but no journaling yet. I better get to it or I will forget my impressions of the wine!!
I really needed to journal this past week and got it all out on several journal spreads but both of these pages still need some embellishments I think...
some more journaling - upper left - this one in my anxiety journal. I really like that page with the handcut vintage book page scrolls. a spread in my newest altered book journal - with a gel transfer that I am really pleased with - I love how my dress is a floral pattern similar to how I draw flowers....so neat!!
I started my cards to hand out for Mothers Day - with a collage on watercolour paper. I am not sure where these are going just yet - most likely paint and mark making with a gel transfer over top - just not sure if I am going to use a photo for the transfer or maybe my doodles.....
If you are wondering about how many cards I am making here...no - I don't have a large amount of mothers ;) I like to hand out either gifts or cards to the mothers I know which includes my sisters :)
Not photographed were the 3 journals that I Gessoed the covers in preparation for paint and collage etc. I am super excited to work on those because it's always such fun to make a cover :)
creating is good. it keeps me happy :)
Yes, you have been a busy bee!!
