Journal Pages

Hello fellow creatives. I am trying to journal again daily, as I have been doing other things and hadn't made that a priority lately. What a difference it has made almost like taking steps backwards. I pushed through this page and yesterdays feeling pretty frustrated. I must of done her face about five times.


This evening I worked on some pages that I think were feeling less forced and more at ease for me mentally if that makes sense. I guess what I am trying to say is it flowed better and  the results ended up much better too. I'll be sharing those pages later.


Although she has a party hat on she isn't altogether a happy gal. I wouldn't be either if I had to get made over five times!  lol Oh, well it has been one of those weeks I am glad it is almost over and ready for the weekend! So I am making a wish for a good weekend and better week ahead! And am wishing you the same! Happy Paint Party Friday!

If you want to visit other creative folks drawing, painting and creating just visit the link for Paint Party Friday in the resource page here and join in with everyone if you like.

  9. maybe her party hat is too tight and that's why she's not happy :)
    I think she's fabulous, and I'm in love with her dress. thanks for posting her even though you're not feeling the love.

  10. Maybe she's bummed because her hair looked great, then someone made her squash it under a party hat. That always makes me crabby.

  15. lol! I think we can all relate to painting over something again and again. I think she turned out lovely, there is a lot of dimension to her, especially around the nose area!
