I worked on these two sketches on a Sunday morning after a week of getting my Etsy shop up and running after 6 years of it being dormant. It was nice to loosen my hand.
This next sketch is could be considered a journal spread. It took me a week to complete. I worked on it a little bit at a time each day. Maybe 15 minutes each. Adding layers upon layers. Not really having a plan. I included the work in progress photo to show how this sketch progressed over time.
This is another journal spread that took me a week to complete. Underneath the messy paint and collage is a written journal. I admire art journalist that can share their deepest thoughts on social media. I'm not quite there yet or I may never be. I feel comfortable sharing bits and pieces.

I worked on these two sketches last Saturday when I was suppose to be tackling my "to do" list. Sometimes you do have to put off tomorrow what you should be doing today so you can make time for art.
Making time for art during the work week can be challenging. These two sketches aren't my favorites. I have been holding onto the leafy magazine paper for quite sometime. I really liked the visual and didn't want to "waste" it. Both of these sketches feel forced to me. Meaning I didn't feel like creating in my journal so I worked in it even though I wasn't feeling creative. Oh, well...that's why I'm creating in a sketchbook journal. It allows me to play with design ideas.
