Have a nice artsy and crafty weekend everyone…!

Digital Friday Freebie: Vintage Background is a post from Deezy Art.

This is the weekly challenge at xa0Illustration Friday: Swell
I could only come up with some balloons.

I have noticed that it become everyday more easier to draw “something” “out of myself”, with no examples etc. Just sit down and draw and no lookielooks around the web for hours and hours for finding some inspiration!

By the way: I did the background with psp12 on this one. It is just a verry quick drawing coloured with copic markers.

Materials used: watercolour paper, watercolour paint, acryllics, ink, gelpens

The Orient this week on SPA is a post from Deezy Art.

There was an other thing why I was making this journal. I am really busy with setting up a little art business myself. I have big plans to start with workshops of all kinds of crafts, here in my little studio. Art Journaling is one of the workshops that I had in mind and this is just a little kind of "coffee table book" to show of what AJ is all about. What do you think of it…? I would love to hear that from you!

Summer is Magic is telling about July, the summer vacation and things on our to-do list for the August month.

Lots of media is used !

The summer is magic… is a post from Deezy Art.

The text is a piece from the lyric that she song: Someone to watch over me (Ella Fitzgerald cover): 

…I am a little lamb, who's lost in the wood

I know I could always be good

To one 

Who will watch over me…

And at this moment I can use someone to watch over me myself, so what a great prompt for my art journal, I thought!

Mixed Media: all kind of stuff. Hair is done with big black permanent markers and acrylics and soft pastels. The face is done with copic markers. The shirt is done with a verry big black permanent marker. Furthermore I used colourpencils, fineliners, paint, stamps. The drawings on the background are drawn with just a simple black colour pencil.

Besides being crafty and drawing and painting, I like reading. I love to read about mistery's like The Davinci Code etc. etc. So I went to the library a lot. 

 
Last week I was in the library and by accident my eye felt on a book about drawing and painting icons with temperra. I don't have any temperra and I am not in the mood of making tempera or buying tempera.

But I was in the mood for drawing. And I am always in the mood for challenging new things to colour with my……copic markers !!!

So I draw two of the beautiful examples from the book and coloured them with my copic markers. Some ot the details I did with cheap fine liners, toy markers and paint markers. 

I loved making these drawings verry much and I only hope that I did not found a new addiction…;-)

Personally, I think the biggest inspiration sournce for Art Journallers, can be found at : Daisy Yellow. Lots, lots, lots of creative idea's and inspirational blog posts can be found here.

I am a member of the flickr group for a few weeks now and finally had some time to do one of the prompts I have found on the website of Daisy Yellow. 

This time I did not use lyrics or quotes and tried to let the painting speeks for itself! Now these days I drawn the girly creatures always by myself and almot never use an example or photo anymore! 

The prompt in this case is : perspective.

So, I painted the background black and made the lines with oil pastel in the colours white and green. Verry much inpsired on a bathroom advertisement I had found on google when I was searching for the word "perspective".

I have drawn the girl on a separate sheet of paper and coloured here in with my copic markers. I cut her out and glued her on the page and painted the rest of the hair tail with white acryllics and add some more lines and curls with all kind of markers.

I added some kind of strokes of paper (cutted out of copy's of old art journals from myself) and put some stripes here and there to add a little bit more colour. I first wrote some words above the word Perspective. But that turned out so verry depressive and that was a little bit to much for me. So I decided to glue a piece of a tangle drawing at it.

Later on when I have find the words, I can write down some thoughts in the hairlines! At least that is my intention!!!

I used two lyrics in the AJ page to came up with three wishes:
Heal the World and
Greatest love of all
