Weekly Art Journal – Weeklong for June 20

This weeklong page was originally inspired by this awesome piece of art.

here’s a sideways look:

and the real one:

I kept the writing short each day cause I didn’t want to interfere with the art.

here’s the left page:

And the right side:

And here’s the filled page (sorry for the blurry photo, I kept trying but couldn’t get something better):

I like how it’s vertical instead of horizontal.

Weekly Art Journal – Weeklong for June 6

This weeklong page was originally inspired by this amazing doodling except mine sucks. And then I added some watercolors but I was still really unhappy with the page.

So once I started the week, I told myself I would just add more doodling. For the numbers and everything else. I wanted to challenge myself not to use anything but doodles.

here’s the left page:

And the right side:

And here’s the filled page:

I really do not like this one. It’s definitely my least favorite of all the pages I’ve ever done.

Weekly Art Journal – Weeklong for May 30

This weeklong page was inspired several different pieces of art. I just wanted to create the feeling of hanging hearts. But I used matte medium to adhere the hearts and it smeared all around which of course made them a resist and resisted the watercolors hence the white around the hearts.

then i used oil crayons to add some more blue. I was still unhappy but happier.

I just added more and more color and blotches as I put in my content each day so it would make the blotches around the hearts look more intentional.

here’s the left page:

And the right side:

And here’s the filled page:

I hate it a lot less now 🙂

Weekly Art Journal – Weeklong for May 23

This weeklong page was inspired by some packaging Pinterest photos that were floating around. I wanted to use kraft, white, and yellow.

I used tissue paper for the background and then adhered some doilies.

Here it is empty:

I stuck with yellow, brown, blue and white for the whole page just for fun.

here’s the left page:

And the right side:

And here’s the filled page:

Tissue paper was hard to write on. Lesson learned. But it did turn out pretty cute.

Weekly Art Journal – Weeklong for May 16

This weeklong page was inspired by an etsy artist I love. Here’s her actual piece.

Mine didn’t turn out as well. Here it is empty:

I kept this page mostly two-tone and since there was book text in the background, it was obscured. But that was ok with me.

here’s the left page:

And the right side:

And here’s the filled page:

This one wasn’t my favorite but I still enjoyed it. Can’t win them all, right?
