Get Your Art On Day 11 - She MAN!!!

More days more art!! now cast your minds back to when I was talking about the she man drawing of mine, she was a bit blokey, well after three nights flicking back and forward in my journal working on her a bit here and there, fixing covering highlighting she almost got the axe on more than one occasion but I stayed with him/her till she finally started looking more woman than man.



lots of layers, sprays paints drawings, complete with a little doodle in the corner that my dad did one night when my parents were over for dinner test driving some of my new coloured pens. so I ripped it out of the envelope he drew it on, and glued it down to work on at a later date, and wahla! there it be!



so there is my art for the day, I'm glad I stuck it out, I don't love her...but I don't hate her either. She is in there as a reminder to myself to never give up on something, because some times the effort is worth it in the end.

that's me done for the day! I will work here and there tonight...actually scrap that I have little girls journals to put together for my boys nieces as a gift to them from the little ones and I.
Thinking fabric covers with girly paper inside, we shall see what my mind does.
take care, enjoy the afternoon sunlight.

  1. I rather like her myself especially the lines in the hair and her eyelashes.

    So how is that junk journal coming along?

  3. So cool that you added your dad's artwork to your journal page. The envelope art was the first thing I was drawn to because of the shape, texture and color palette. You did a great job of incorporating it into your working journal page.
