Creative Endeavors in Art

Imagine...

This art journal page is very simplistic, I think that's what I'm needing in my life right now!  I took a picture of a woman's face from a magazine(beautiful black model with her eyes open), collaged it over my background and painted over her to have her resemble me!  I've been working on skin tones, so I'm glad to have the practice.  She (I) turned out wrinkly due to the fact I didn't let the glue dry from the magazine.  Then I think, well maybe that's me retired on the beaches of Maui.  :0)

Time to Rest

Living in Colorado, the Rocky Mountains really call to me.  They are beautiful in every season.  :0)

Clarity

This is my word of the year:  CLARITY  :0)

Open Studio Journal entry #1

Had fun putting down some marker then playing around with colorful artist crayons!  To top it off, a bit of white paint on top.  I love the fact I can have purple hair and green eyes!!!!

Art journaling always gets my creative energy flowing.  :0)

Watercolor Poppies

Another thing I'm loving about this challenge is to see other artists' work on flickr.  "Goldendoglady" posted a beautiful watercolor poppy that really inspired me.  I decided to try it myself!!  I've been studying acrylics and layering so much that the simplicity of the watercolors really called to me.

 

Day #17 of Create Art Every Day Month

I've committed to "Create Art Every Day Month" in a way that doesn't put too much pressure on myself.  Sure, I'm definitely creating everyday. But it doesn't mean that I will have FINISHED projects each and every day!  The challenge definitely has got my creative juices flowing, for which I'm very grateful!

Tree of Love and Hope

I realized I haven't done much art journaling lately with all my other projects going on.  So, for a while, I'll be focusing on that.  Let's see how long I can be focused, that shall be the challenge! So many creative projects to explore!

Happy Dia de los Muertos!

I LOVE Dia de los Muertos images! So this is my first attempt. I meant for my skull to be happy, but he turned out more serious. Oh well, I still like how it turned out. :0)

Today, I joined the "Art Every Day Month" group.  I'm inspired to happily create the entire month of November!  Let's see what it brings...
