Pages from the Scrappy Green Journal.

Background inked and written over

in pen. White gel pen on 

magazine illustration.

Bits of ephemera collaged on also.

Fun stitching provided by Elizabeth,

creating spaces to write...

Also in the Scrappy Green Journal:

Count your shoes...

the one with the most, wins!

"Fashion fades, only style

remains the same."  ~Coco Chanel

Draw something today...

as the top page says, don't think about

what the thing that you are drawing is.

Just look at the shapes and spaces

in relationship to each other.

Draw from real life.

Practice. A lot.

It gets easier.

And more fun!

Art Journal Pages

Continuing to work in the Green Scrappy Journal

that Elizabeth sent me.

'Plunge into Life' is created on top of

a page made from brown paper bag.

The next page shows the tags

peeking out of the paper bag opening,

and from behind the cardstock that

had been sewn to it.

One side of the larger tag is above.

The quote was torn from an old

psychology textbook.

A quote written on hand-painted paper

is on the other side of the large tag.

I made this paper while

painting with poster paints with

my grandson one day...

you can see the crayon resist

beneath the paint on the right side.

I love this quote...

Go throw some paint!
