Get Messy: The Season of Introspection - Weeks 1 and 2

Hi friends!  It's the Season of Introspection over at Get Messy Art Journaling, and I'm excited to share my first two weeks in my new journal.

We were invited to alter a book for this season's prompts.  Here's how mine turned out...




And here are the pages so far. They are all in response to introspective prompts...


It's especially fun when I can make use of the illustration that's already on the book page, like this one...



Here's another one where I used an illustration from the book (the little dancing bugs)...


I'm still working on this week's prompts, but I will share when I get them done!
