I'm on a roll lately with this journal. I've been spending a lot of time in the waiting room of the gym where my daughter Emma Grace takes gymnastics. She has two hour classes several days a week and it's the perfect opportunity for me to work on my Art journal! I love it when I can take my art work with me especially when I don't want to put it down. It wasn't until this year that I started creating all my art in an art journal. It's nice to have it all in one place. Before this year all my work was done on canvas which is not so easy to reproduce. Once it's purchased it's gone and just the photo remains. This art journal project is fantastic because all my originals are with me and they print out SO beautifully on a laser printer with the special card stock I use. It also makes my work a lot more affordable to purchase. I hope these journal images are as interesting to others as they are to me and as many artists hope.... I too hope to spread my intricate images across the world.
For all the artistic Mom's out there........we are so lucky to have the outlet of our art work to keep us sane!!! I have always felt fortunate to not really even know what it's like to be bored. I have MY LOVE FOR ART to thank for that(O:

I've also had to move to smaller scale works, for now. And embroidery, which is also good to travel with. This is a neat work, it's an interesting mix of folk art and stained-glass window!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful journal pages. I like to do the same with some of my art, it allows me to keep the originals and use the prints in my other journals.
