Here is my ‘I Am” assignment for suzi blu’s life book/art journal exercise. I just went wild and played with texture and color. I ended covering it all up with different shades of red and pink following Milliande’s journal prompt. Then I scraped white paint across it all and made my beautiful girl. I just get lost in her eyes. After creating this I hate the last journal page I made I showed you and all the other ones I didn’t show. This is just beautiful to me. I may hate it later too but for now I’m happy with it.
This was in the background of the first pic in my last post. I took coffee grounds to create the texture. I love it so much as is that I can’t bear to add anything to it!
I brought this down stairs along with everything else. It hides behind my couch across from my dinning table now my ‘art studio’. there is a door I stick up there so I don’t have to look at this mess. I don’t like the mess of this cupboard but the mess on my table makes me smile!
I’m doing much better lately. I am so loving netflix. I can watch movies, tv shows, documentaries, etc… online anytime I want free. I LOVE it! I think going without my pc did help me be more creative. I made all this and more while it was down. I just get on the net and play with all these social networks ning things and twitter and on and on. But I am so glad I have these distractions when I need them so I don’t cry so much but I need to let go and create more, do more, live more off the web.

ReplyDeleteYou are heading in the right direction! You GO, girl! The coffee grounds thing is way good. I'm with you on that. Leave it. Or try another page with grounds and mess around with it as a background!
ReplyDeleteDinah your girl is beautiful, no wonder you love her.
ReplyDeleteI really like the picture with the coffee grounds too, it looks like the galaxy.
Peace to you.
Love Renee
To my fellow Amazon junkie! Beautiful art and nice blog!
ReplyDeleteEverytime I look at people's workspace, or works in progress, or even just their art supplies, I get so happy inside. This is fantabulous!
ReplyDeleteAlso, thank you for your comment on my blog! And in case you ever wanted to know, I sell a print of that photo (in my header)in my Etsy shop. :)
