don't faint...

...but yes, i'm uploading one art journal page. i've done more, but i haven't been so good at scanning + uploading lately. i'll try to do better; i promise!

this is based on a prompt from my friend roc. be sure to check out her blog; her art is amazing.

i have several art journals going at the moment. this one goes in the one i call "all about me."

this page features images from teeshamoore.

journal happy

at the moment i have several art journals in the works...something i've always wanted to do. here's a collaged page i made in my 9x9 journal using images from nancy baumiller's weekly collage play with crowabout challenge, as well as a 5x7ish mixed-media cover i made for another journal, "whispers of the heart," inspired by kelly rae roberts' book, taking flight.
the cover is the face on the left; the page is on the right.

before writing...

...i thought i'd share a few journal pages. 2 are from pam carriker's workshop at strathmoreartist.com. check them out: at the moment there are 3 free workshops that are ongoing, meaning you can jump in at any time and work at your own pace. i believe they'll be available til august.
the other page (genuine standard) is based on crowabout's weekly collage play challenge wherein you develop a piece of art using supplied images.

i'm really getting into art journaling...something i've wanted to do for quite some time. i have 3 journals going. i think one of the things i really enjoy is that you can keep going back to pages and adding more stuff. in a way, they're never done unless you want them to be.

these are all pages in my 9x9 journal. i have a lot more pages started. can't wait to see how they all develop. :)

I'd like to give the world....

If you could give the world something about yourself, what would it be?
I found this journal prompt at journalingprompts.com.
5x7 mixed-media collage journal page featuring a teesha moore image.

what do you believe?

the latest journal prompt from roc: what do you believe? well i could probably easily fill a book in response to that, but i limited myself to this 5x7 mixed-media journal page that features images from teesha moore.
i'm so proud to get roc's prompt done early in the month. maybe i can even do a few more pages this month. that'd make me happy!

finally!

I just haven't been able to carve out a lot of art time lately, but I'm diligently trying to restructure my life so that it can become a part of my every day. But I did get these 2 journal pages done this month.
I wasn't happy with the quality of the paper in my previous journal, so I started over. So I re-did my blue page (what color makes you happy?) and i also did the feb page for my good friend roc's monthly challenge/prompt: what do you love?

what color makes you happy?

ok, the goal was to create about 5 journal pages a week. here it is jan 25th, and i've created a grand total of one page this month! oh well.
anyway, the prompt is what color makes you happy?
for me it's always been blue. what about you?
