->hhhhhhhhhhhhh, (Sound of huge inhale)

Yesterday I sent off Priti's journal to Love Dove.

Priti puts such wonderful LOVE in her art.

That love comes right out of the page and into the heart of the viewer.

Truth!

 

This morning I received Oceandreamers journal.

->hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh is all I can say! 

 

Can I exhale now?

Spoiler alert

 

I have been working in Tere's journal.

It is about a magical circle of friends.

GONE. TODAY.......in the mail.

My journal is traveling

through the U.S.P.O.

on its way to

Tracy

in Arizona! 

:)

OK, HERE'S MINE

Except for a couple of pages I am still working on,

my journal is ready to go.
It's glitzy, becuz I love glitz,
altho the glitter doesn't show much here

It's a journal of ARTISTIC FREEDOM

where you can create anything

your artsy heart desires.

It's made from the soft covers of a composition book.

There are pages of watercolor paper,

smooth Bristol,

pages of Dr. Seuss which I have lightly gessoed to accept most media,

neon cardstock,

pastel paper,

real canvas,

and a pocket chock full of STUFF to be used...anywhere.

This IS my first altered book so I am crossing my fingers

it does not fall apart because I know I didn't sew it right...

I just know I didn't....

er...I don't THINK so...

Anyway, I'll be kissing it goodbye soon and sending it on its

extraordinary journey to be filled with art and love.

gemmas "Vincent" journal

Book cover for Van Gogh journal

one of the pages did not scan well

 

 

 

My journal

My brain storm for this journal is to honor Vincent Van Gogh using the words from
the Don McLean song: Starry starry night.
I will start the journal and make several pages.
Each page I make will correspond with words from the song.
At the top of each page I will write the words to the song.
When my journal gets to you you can choose the lyrics/pages you want to art up.
It doesn't have to be in chronological order. Just remember to sign your work.


Following my muse on this. I am so touched by Vincent.
