Book of Days 2014...

I just realized I haven't done a Book of Days update, and we are almost into the second month!  Once again, I am loving my Book of Days process, and the fact that I'm not overloaded with classes this year, has given me the time to go a little deeper into the self-reflection part of the process, and I am loving that!

Here are my first four pages...

(background: masking tape, gesso, acrylic paint, clear gesso. heart: neocolor II crayons, gesso, permapaque, molotow, and uniball signo pens. portrait: pencil, neocolor II crayons, gesso, acrylic paint, pilot permaball and sharpie poster paint pens)


(background: masking tape, misc. scrapbook, text and sheet music papers, acrylic paint, gesso, stencils, spray ink, rubber stamps, stazon ink. words: gesso, acrylic paint, permaball pen. portrait: pitt pen, gesso, acrylic paint, neocolor II crayons, uniball signo and permaball pen.)


(background: masking tape and acrylic paint. words: permapaque marker, acrylic paint and acrylic ink. tree: modeling paste, stencil, molotow markers and permapaque marker)

(background: sheet music, spray ink, gesso, scrapbook paper. words: acrylic ink, sharpie poster paint pen, and permaball pen. photo: printed on matte photo paper and cut out)


I'll leave you with my latest pic of the Johnmeister, posing with his favorite mouse...

 I wish you a wonderful week my friends!  Thanks for stopping by!!!
