Seriously......it is. That's all I've been working on lately. I'm so excited about my Summer Journal. It's going better than I ever expected. And I'm really not talking about the art I've been producing within in it.
I'm mainly excited about the process.
It's been this feeling of freedom to experiment with different techniques and experiments that normally I would be afraid to do....."wouldn't want to waste a perfectly good canvas now would I....nope...let's just play it safe..."
But between the prompts from Teresa and all the new things I've been learning with Corey's book (Raise your hand if you went out and bought it!) The other big thing is the promise that I made to myself to use my favorite vintage wallpaper........even if it means it's the only one I have. It's been this incredible artistic growth spurt. So, now the trick is to take what I've learned (and am still learning) from Corey and turn it into my own.
Here are a few more pages that are a work in progress.
Now, I know what you are thinking...."hmmmm, you say it's a journal. Yet, there is no journaling...." The reason for that is I'm waiting until I'm ready to do it. For some reason, I'm not feeling the pull to actually write anything just yet.
So I have a few hours to myself today as Papa and the boys are off to the Children's Museum and the playground. I'm hoping to finish a few more pages and then clean my work table. Because, once again, I've managed to work my way into a little teeny tiny space that only a mouse could work in. Even then, I think the mouse would complain. Don't believe me?
Well, there you go..... Hope everyone had a great 4th of July and I will talk to you soon! Karin
