Here are some journal pages…not quite complete but getting there….
The 100 things about me page….still so much to go, but I have added material to write on and paint on and am quite happy to have little doors! And then my silver linings page. There is stuff going on, on the other page, and that made a bit of a messy hodge podge on the following (backing) page. And so I worked with that. And it is messy, but that is half the point as well. And the Colour my world page. I was attempting to do that bright crayon layer and then cover with black and scratch (as I remember doing as a child), but the pages stuck and ripped so I put in a layer of gesso and have added more crayon and am just going to plod away.
And then the doorways page. And the Magic page (using black gesso). All have utilised a new technique and have been about experimentation, and really that is what journalling is to me at this time. And I am learning so much. On the ugly pages and the “nicer” pages. And I am showing my ugly pages because they exist and are part of the process. And they have taught me something and they are part of the story…And I like coming and going and doing a bit here and a bit there.
