This grouping of 4 pictures from my journals are watercolor. I like the way the paint went on the paper. I like the organic shapes. The pictures have movement and light and seem to go together to me.

I like this picture. It reminds me of daydreaming. I had painted a watercolor wash on the page first then did a micron pen design over it. Then I painted in some of the featured shapes. Another self portrait in micron pen and watercolor in my journal. I refer to this as me with narrowed eye. I have a tendency to narrow my eyes when I am skeptical or angry. This is a micron pen abstraction in a large moleskine journal. From a commentary on the practice of nyungne by The Venerable Bardor Tulku Rinpoche:.

3 images from our visit to Ghost Ranch. A pencil rendering of one of O'Keeffe's most enduring images, and 2 watercolor landscape attempts. All 3 on watercolor paper. I had always wanted to see what Georgia O'Keeffe saw and painted. I fell in love with the landscape as she had. I am not a good enough artist to depict what I saw but I loved being there and was inspired by it. We went to an art store while in Santa Fe (of course, we did! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

I bought a small moleskine cover from Renaissance Art. It fits like a glove and I use it every day. If you're thinking about getting a cover for your moleskine check these people out. Great cover, good company, several styles, very affordable. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This is a Flickr badge showing public photos from crowmaxx. Make your own badge here.

I like to decorate my journal pages and make them colorful. My journal is not a diary. It is a place of expression. Some days I write. Some days I only have visual images. Some days I do both. There is nothing more boring to me than page after page of handwriting on white paper. I look for emotion and expressiveness when I look at someone's (or my own) journal. That can be expressed in words, true, but as I am a very visual person, I respond more to the visu. Al way the words are placed on the page.
