Journal52 week 4

 

 

 This weeks prompt was building character, so naturally, my page has little to nothing to do with that, oh well :D

So I drew a self-portrait, and wrote a quote that I liked and rolled with it.

 

I used watercolor, sharpie, and charcoal, oh and hairspray so the charcoal didn't smudge.

 

 

I totally drew myself cross-eyed, made me laugh!!

 

 

 

 

This one was really fun!

 

 



Estoy hecho de impresionante!

Roses are red.

 

 

 I am being so lazy with this thing, I've had this thing done for a few days, but wharever :)

 

I decided because my last journal page was so emotional, I decided that I would go amusing.

 

Here were the prompts for this one from wonderstrange-

Main Spread: Check out some art/mixed media/technique videos on YouTube and try one out.
Journaling: Write about your experience with that technique, what you learned, what you want to learn, how you can apply it, etc.
Photography: Take a picture of something you love. Alternatively print out a picture of something you love.
Journaling: Write down a quote that resonates with you, makes you laugh, makes you think, does something to you emotionally. It can be completely random and have absolutely no context.
Art/Photography: Think about skills you want to acquire. Work on it, even if it’s ugly and weird.
DOODLE. Use ink. Trust yourself.
Destash: Use something you’ve had for a while/something you’re hoarding
Attach any ephemera/mementos that are making you happy

 

Journal52 week 3

 

 

The prompt was You Make Me Smile

But for a long time my smiles have been bitter sweet and well, this was the result.

 

 

I was crying when I wrote it the first time and it didn't make any sense, so I

wrote it again, and then again when I accually put it on the page

 

 

As long as I can remember my dad has called me Berracuda, so thats how I signed it.

 



 

I think this page is like a kind of closure for me. I know its not perfect but I love it <3

Je t'aime papa

Cold!!

Soooo cold!! :( 

It shouldn't be this freaking cold, its Texas for gods sake!!

28°, and feels like 24°!! The heat is on and I feel like I'm going to freeze into a block of ice.

My dog is keeping me warm though, he's such an angel that will clime under the blankets with me.

His name is Frankie,

He's so cute, so I took a bunch of pictures.

I'm late, I'm late!

 

 

 

I'm like crazy behind on my posts! I was suppose to have my one from Wonderstranges 100 things to draw when you're bored up two days ago and my art journal page up yesterday!!

 

But Sunday I caught up on my school school work, and today, well yesterday I slept ALL day.

 

~I do have a few things for y'all~

 

 

Up First Ladybugs And Gentleworms, may I present for your visual pleasure...

MR. TANGERINE!!

#13 on Wonderstranges list

 Hes one cool dude in a speedo

Stuff

 

 

 

 

So for the past few days I haven't really been doing anything major, I've doodled and experimented and practiced and I did a Journal52 thing, but you'll have to wait till monday for that.

 I was messing around with ink and made a great big mess

I have weirdly short fingers on camera...

My already much abused mouse pad

Anyhoo my playing resulted in a few things, some good, some bad, and some weird

MOnday.... O.o

I feel so blah today. Cursed Monday blues!

 

 But somehow I found the energy to start my art journal, yay me!!

 

 

The WonderStrange gals give you prompts every monday and I joined Journal52which also gives you a prompt a week and I'll either do both in the same page or separate.

 

 

This week’s prompts:

• Main spread: Illustrate/collage/paint/otherwise artify something funny that you saw or read.
• Photography: When you catch yourself rolling your eyes at yourself, take a picture of that thing you’re doing – write a little explanation when you paste the picture in.
• Art/Photography/Journaling: Think of the most memorable thing that happened this week. If you have a picture of it, paste it in. If you can draw it, draw it. If you just want to write about it, do that!
• Journaling: List at least three things you accomplished this week.
• Journaling: What is your favorite song right now?
• Journaling: What are you excited about?
• Attach any momentos or ephemera that has caught your attention
• Destash: If you find yourself hoarding a supply, use it!
• Journal52 prompt: Up, up, and away

 

This week I mixed Stranges and 52's, though I didn't do ALL of Stranges, oh well ;)
