January's artist was Hundertwasser. I can't believe I didn't know about him! His work is right up my alley! Lots of bright colors and organic lines - so cool!
Here are my journal pages about Hundertwasser...
A little bit about him and some photos of his work. He was both a painter and an architect. I would love to see one of his buildings in person!
On the left I've studied his palette; and mixed in some quotes that give an idea of his personality and perspective as an artist. On the right is a little page I created, using Hundertwasser's work as inspiration...
Here's my messy weekly page too...
The air mail envelope was already there (each week has some sort of tip in - either a tag or an envelope). I decided to collect stamps from the mail that week, and stick them on the front...
Inside the envelope I tucked the dictionary definition of the theme word for January - beginnings.
Thanks so much for visiting! I appreciate it!
