Life Book week thirteen was taught by Dyan Reaveley. I sat on this one for a long time but then when I finally sat down, I knew I wanted to use feathers. I used the Crafter’s Workshop stencil to draw them and cut them and then I colored each of them with different mists and stamped them with writing stamp. and then outlined the edges. I then couldn’t decide what to do with the background. I tried like five different ones. When I finally, finally tried black, I loved it. Everything was easy from there on. The writing says: You get to shed parts of yourself that no longer serve you. a few details:

So the first part of being creative is changing my perspective. Listening from a completely different perspective. Slowing down and seeing other possibilities. Stopping my default reaction to things. Really taking the time to look at things multiple ways. Each time an opportunity to listen arrives, I will be asking, what would other perspectives look like here? What’s his/her perspective? What’s mine? Is there another? The fun lettering I used here comes from this pin. The image here is from this awesome pin. Listen with Intent is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
This week’s inspiration comes from the line drawing class I took with Lisa Congdon back in March. I drew these with a size 1 micron and used the watercolors to color. The background is also watercolors. I am not such a fan of it but the goal was practice so I am trying not to judge myself too harshly. prompt says: today i know that many people in the world are I wrote about how many people feel broken in their own way. Today I Know is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
This week’s stitching also comes from urban threads. After the involved unicorn last week i wanted something small and quick. I used stem stitch, fill stitch, and back stitch on this one. The little word is simple. Stitching Circles is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here. This week is about Cal Day at Berkeley and David’s paper on quantum physics.

This week’s simple remember this was done for My Mind’s Eye. It was a page where I wrote never ever give up with washi tape. Then I painted the page, and then I stripped the washi and added some black marker. and ta-da!
and here it is without the black marker:

A new month and a new intention. This month, I wanted to do something fun so I decided to pick Listen Creatively. How can I change things up? How can I look at the same thing differently? Can I get creative with my listening? What would that look like? What would that sound like? I am not sure what to expect from this month, but I am open to being creative with it. The creative lettering I used here comes from this pin. The image here is supposed to be watercolors. Listen with Intent is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
This week’s inspiration comes from this pin. I am still obsessed with figure sketching and I loved this one. I drew the dresses in pencil then drew again with 0.005 micron and used the watercolors. The background is also watercolors. I also added some gold mica powder. You can see better in this other view.
prompt says: today i know that it is time for me to replace my I wrote about good and bad news and how i listen for the bad and how i want to replace this point of view. Today I Know is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here.
This week’s stitching also comes from urban threads. This unicorn took me a while but I loved how colorful it is. I used stem stitch and back stitch on this one. The little word is colors. Stitching Circles is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here. This week is all about the boys playing board games and david’s first trip to the eye doctor.

Life Book week thirteen was a bonus lesson Lesley Riley. The original lesson uses TAP but I didn’t have any so I was going to pass on it. But then, again, I reminded myself I am taking this class to stretch. So I decided to use Stickyback Canvas I’ve had for a long time. I decided to do something super simple. I printed this photo of me with my boys and then did some writing. It says: you are so very deeply loved and you will never be alone. I will always love you with all my heart. In March, I took a class on line drawing by Lisa Congdon so I covered the back with some basic line work to practice and then a little bit of paint and my page was finished. Super-simple but I still like it. Remember This is a project for 2014. You can read more about it here. |
