I started with suggested Indian ink pens to doodle my sunflower. I used watercolors to paint my sunflower. I then used texture plates and colored pencils to color around my sunflower. I did this in my Magilla notebook. Just regular cheap ruled notebook paper.
I had fun with the project. Just happy to have a little art time to enjoy this morning!

| collage in my "Magilla" notebook |
I worked in my "Magilla" notebook, which is a basic ruled notebook (no special paper). I used acrylic paints, printed scrapbook papers, an Indian ink pen, and a bit of stamped text.
This was a fun and inspiring exercise. I hope to enjoy more workshops as time permits. Sketchbook Revival Binge Fest is open for 12 more days.
I participated in an art-a-thon at ATCsforall.com last week. I created and traded 6 pieces - a mix of drawing, coloring, collage, and stamping. It's always fun to make art and have fun with friends.
"Wildflowers" - ATC made with printed image, stamping, Indian ink doodles, and embroidery on felt.
I arted up another page in my "Junk Mail Journal". This little junk journal was made (years ago) by taking the junk mail postcards that
had accumulated near my computer, trimming them all to 4" x 6" or so,
and spiral binding them into a book. Then I just started pasting random
bits inside to decorate the pages.
This page was made using acrylic paint, printed scrapbook paper, a horse doodle with Indian ink pen, and some stamping.
Just a little fun art to enhance my day and my mood. Whee!
The page theme is "Valentines" ... I started the page by using colored pencils over texture plates, and added some doggies clipped from a Kroger ad. Mix in some paper flowers, acrylic gems, washi tape, doodles and acrylic paint ... and there you have it. All that is missing is some text - words, names, initials, poetry, etc... But I lost my Valentines mojo, so that will have to wait a bit.
C'est la vie.
