Some days don’t you get a bug to do something different? Last night as I was working in my Moleskine, I realized I only have a few pages left. It is almost full. So I started to look back through it and as always, some pages I love, some are OK, and some I still don’t think are finished. I sat there looking at a couple of pencil sketches and wanted to do something out of the ordinary for me, so I added a little Frida and Zettiology pizazz. It turned the ordinary sketches into something unexpected.
I had so much fun doing something daring, and still keeping my style and even colors. I am going to spend a little while going back through my journal and adding to some of the pages until I am satisfied and they scream ‘no more’! to me. I really love this stage of journaling, adding the final layers. The pages keep evolving, hardly ever finished in one sitting, stages of completion until there is no more.
These are wonderful……love your hauntingly beautiful journal pages! Congrats in getting into CPS! Yay!Love, Violette
These are fabulous! It's great to see you stretching your style a bit and I especially love your "Listen to your inner Frida" piece!Tam
These are great! Sometimes when you are just messing around you end up with the best stuff!
I came to see your buried treasure and got a delightful trip around your blog. Found some wonderful buried treasure of my own, too. I like your comment on knowing when it is done, and working on more than one piece at a time. I'm trying to learn to do both! Thanks for the inspiration.
Those are cool! Its always relaxing and fun to try something new in the art department huh? 🙂
Luv the Zetti page.
Unexpected and wonderful! Zetti suits these pages well. Hugs, Terri xoxo
Oh these are fun Pam. I love going back and adding something here and there in my journal.
