Messy Experimental Journal Process

Hello Everybody!

 It has been a great Sunday. Relaxed and quiet. Laundry is in the washer and on the couch. 

Here are a few pictures of the progression of my journal page. It is a "get messy" page. Not meant to be a great work of art, but a fun, exploration of art materials.

Well, I am using Golden (which is the brand) Soft Gel Medium, Matte. See the gold glitter? I put the get medium over that and it still looks sparkly.

I really know that I need to study into how to draw a face. Mine is quite cartoony. I have a book: How to Draw Faces, on my Amazon wish list.  

I almost left the hair just like that. I like it, but love to do hair so worked on it for another 2 hours.

This was meant to be sort of playful and not a work of art but something fun to do and to "get messy" on a page.  By get messy I mean, take some chances and don't stay right in my comfort zone. The blush was a get messy addition. Her hair has about 6 or seven colors in it. This page is not really done. I want to give her some clothing. The tag is from a gift C. gave me. She combined some different tea leaves and put the tea in these huge tea bags, big enough to put in a tea pot, and put a Brene Brown quote on the back of the tag. The tea tasted lovely and I can't throw away the tags. 

Thanks for reading!! Any suggestions? Leave a comment.
Love you much!!!
