Another online workshop,new art and new moleskin








I've been on a roll,I love when that happens! Things just work out,go smoothly. You just have fun,no stress. I don't know about you but sometimes when I work on things and they don't go smoothly I get alittle stressed about what to do next or if I should just trash it. These pieces were just stress free!
I also bought a new moleskin journal,my other one is all filled up. I sold a piece of art and decided to treat myself to a new moleskine. Besides they were on sale at barnes and noble. 20% off so I couldnt resist. I love the look of my filled up journal but theirs something about a new journal that I love to. It just sat there for a day,(I didnt want to mess it up) but then I just started writing in it and painted some white paint over the writing. I added a picture of my sillohouette and painted over that too,journaled around the silohouette(is that how you spell it) and now its broken in.
I"m taking another journal class by LK Ludwig. She's having a sale right now. Go and check it out. I love her journals. I'm not much of a photographer but I'm having fun using my own images to journal with. Thats where I got the idea about the silohouette and the picture of my daughter and her cousin at the beach. Thats called vingetteing. (spelling again? ) Well anyway if you like to journal her class is worth taking. Off to walmart(UGH)hope everybody has a great week.

Buffy love these pages!!! I keep beginning a new journal before I completely fill up one. Hmmm, wonder what that means??

Will definitely check out that class, thanks!

Great pages, Buffy! Nothing like getting a brand new Moleskin. I even bought these little mini Moleskin notebooks the other day....so cute!!

Yes, you are on a roll, Buffy, and the journal class--ahhh maybe in January--I hope you keep creating and congratulations on your sale!

Congrats on selling some art! That's always a thrill, having a new journal is fun too. I am like Mary, starting a new one just before I finish the old one. . . .

Your art is so beautiful. I love the top one so much. You use a great muted palette- they are soft but yet still have an edgy quality to them that balances all that softness - they make you want to stare at them for a long time.
I know what you mean about a new art journal- the first page. You just have to get in there and lay some paint on it- and it breaks the spell of "i can't mess it up". Can't wait to see more.
