Mini art journal

Mini art journal book for the Mini handmade art journal swap # 7 @ swap-bot.

My Valentines Day cards

Copic markers

 

 

Copic colouring

I hope everyone enjoys 2014:-) The weather has been kind to us, is not really Winter. It should be Winter, but it still feels like Autumn. Wonder what that means for the upcoming months...

I share some images colored with my Copics and Prisma color pencils. The images are of different brand s.a. Sweetpea rubber stamps, Penny Blossom digital image and Lacy Sunshine digital images. All lovely images I enjoy coloring.

I have to finish the coloring, but I thought it would be nice to share projects that I am working on. It seems that I enjoy the coloring these days. And I haven't used my Copics and Prisma color pencils for a while! I hope you'll like the combination of colours that I used and of course the shading :-) I apparently care more about the shading on the face and skin. I care less about the shading on the clothes. Maybe because the shading of the clothes requires techniques. I try these techniques, but I don't like all the time it consumes.

Of course I will share the finished projects with you.

Time ...

Art journal page, prompt: Time (Mini handmade art journal #6)

Time is free,

but it is priceless.

You can't own it, but you can use it.

You can't keep it, but you can spend it.

Once you've lost it

You can never get it back!

Time is your most precious gift, waist it wisely:-)

Fall art journal

My second page in the 'Fall art journal' is something that just popped up and I noticed that I drew a cactus. No explanation for where the idea came from ... and no need to explain, right!

For the journaling I used the lyrics of the song: I never promised you a rose garden.

Fall art journal

A month ago I received a 'Fall art journal' for the Pocketsize Journal/Sketchbook swap @ swap-bot.com. Two pages to do and I did not have a clue what to add to this journal.

I haven't done a lot of these big eyed girls for a while. Still love these girls:-) Yesterday I started drawing and this is the first page in this small art journal.

Used:

acrylic paints, crackle glaze, Prismacolor pencils, black pen and Faber-Castell's PITT artist pens.
