back to common ground

It seems that I have the memory span of a goldfish, Monday came and went, and I didn't even think about the Monday Mantra! I've been in a bit of an art funk, not sure what happened, I think I was trying to cram so much into my brain, learning new things, looking at all the courses I've been in, and want to do, I got overloaded and just fizzled out...so I'm embracing this.


I sat at my art desk, staring at the journals I've started and gotten bogged down in, it seems there were pages in all my journals that didnt seem to hit the mark with me, so I just stopped arting. I just sat there going through pages I'd already completed...my way of re reading. So I went back to basics and just went to something familiar...faces... she isnt finished but here is my progress so far.

its a double spread, so tomorrow I might sit down and try and get the pages finished, and maybe then I will be over my little funk, ready to take anything on again.



a shocking photo, but alas here is the newest member of the nook...little raven.
I had to nab this photo whilst she was still enough to capture on the ipad. Tomorrow I'll use my cannon and hopefully have a better shot of my little black beauty.

Paint she said!

I needed to shift gears with my journal, I didnt want to become stagnant creating the same looking thing over and over... So Christy told me to paint my girl today...so I got my paints out and did just that..

she's not as refined as my copic girls or my pencil girls...but I like her. a little verbal mummy rant on the other side covered with random flowers... and the page is pretty much done.

tomorrow I want to try and tackle a full Jane body...I've been putting it off for a couple of weeks now because I feel my bodies look a bit retarded lol... but I'll try see how I go.


enjoy your Tuesday!
might go sketch in the sunlight, I need a bit of vitamin D
