Prompt #18 from Janel of "Run with Scissors" Journal prompts
Journal Prompt 18: Music is one of my most favorite things ever!! It translates emotions that I can't even imagine putting into words. I love it. Today I want you to create a playlist of some kind. It can be your summer playlist, your July playlist, songs from your wedding day, or favorite songs of all time :) This one will be another fun one to look at down the road :)
This is some of my favorite songs on my summer playlist. :)
2010-05-25, acrylic and collage in my Art Journal. Inspired by Jeannine's class Mining the metaphor and the prompt "Map your heart".
Prompt #23 was a free choice page. Janel did a page similar to this and I was so inspired, I decided to do one too. I traced around Michael and my hands, cut them out and glued them on the page. I totally tried to do the same thing with the cats - and umm, that was less than successful - ha. You should of seen me following them around with a piece of patterned paper, trying to get ahold of a foot. They were not having any of that. In the end, I settled for cutting their paws out of a photograph...

-- Prompt fill (Arkady9)
You are the hole in my head
You are the space in my bed
You are the silence in between
What I thought and what I said
You are the night-time fear
You are the morning when it’s clear
When it’s over your start
You’re my head
You’re my heart

What is the prompt [holds you back?]
Things I wrote down: gel medium, 7 gypsies, more Jenni Bowlin, Paintsticks, Silver Bella and other Artsy Travels, more on-line classes, designer Fabrics, lots more threads, different kinds of glue, sealants, healthy supply of gessos and decoupages. I Zentangled the dollar and cent stencils(I did not fill them in with pencil) and added the peace stamp because it looks Zentangle-y and also because of the word peace(I like how in some places it is crisp and in others it is blurry-I'm not always happy with taking that 5th or 6th spot in my hubby's budget plan). The bigger journaling spots are from a plant tag and the smaller one is traced from a chipboard frame after pieces are punched out. I traced them onto the back of a pink legal size paper that was tea bag stained and than glued to smooth corrugated cardboard. There's even an old list of stuff over on the left from 2004 or 2005.
Words on the other tag are: Holds me back? I tend to not want to use my stuff. What I do~ make lists of stuff I want and mark it off as I go along, use my stuff anyway, being thankful for what I do have, pray.
My front door -- This lesson is very helpful to me - I am constantly plagued by wonky, misshapen structures when I draw. I find measured setup helps a lot in getting the core lines established and its easy to build upon from there. Thanks Liz!
A kind of scrapbooky page in honor of my brother.

Prompt #14 from Janel of "Run with Scissors" Journal prompts
Journal Prompt 14: Ok, now that we have all of the yucky insecurities out of our system, I want us to completely focus ONLY on the things that make you the amazing person that you are. What are the qualities that you possess that make you so wonderful? Don't be shy and don't be modest either on this one :)
I had a hard time with this one. I couldn't really think of anything. But I do really care a lot about other people.
Prompt DALL-E:
Create a widescreen portrait of a young, slender girl with her face faintly visible, composed entirely of black and dark gray tones, without any light gray or blue. Emphasize dramatic and wild accents of gold dust as the central focus and primary source of light. This gold dust should subtly illuminate her features, offering an artistic, high-fashion look. The image should radiate mystery and intrigue, with the gold dust creating a stark contrast against the dark backdrop. Include large expressive dark brown eyes and a thin, artful line of gold dust across her face, ensuring no blue hues are present.
Natty's prompt was to base a journal page on summer movies that are looking forward to coming out soon in the cinema. I'm not a big follower of movies though; I tend to stick to what I know or watch everything 6 months later when its out on DVD (of course with a few exceptions). So I decided to do it on my favourite movies instead :)
So my main favourite movies are:
-The Nightmare Before Christmas
-Corpse Bride
-Coraline
Can you tell that there is a Tim Burton/Stop Motion theme going on here haha.
I wanted to create a journal spread without using paint for once so this was an experiment. I'm on the fence with the turn out though. I like it and I don't.
**Oh and did anyone notice that I forgot the first rule of image transfers? The images are all back to front hehe

Coloured in using Derwent Coloursoft & Derwent Graphitint pencils.
I was initially going to colour in with bright bold colours, but then thought "no, do something *different* Viv!" and went with a much more muted palette. I quite like it :-)
