February 14th, 2021: On probably the last really cold winter day we went for a sunset walk in Heikendorf / Möltenort. The stones of the pier behind the submarine memorial were covered with a layer of ice, I've never seen it like this before!

14.2.2021: Am wahrscheinlich letzten wirklich kalten Wintertag waren wir zum Sonnenuntergang in Heinedorf/Möltenort spazieren. Die Steine der Mole hinter dem U-Boot-Ehrenmal waren mit einer Eisschicht überzogen, das habe ich so noch nie gesehen!

I'm working hard at art journaling every day this year...sometimes I do a little, sometimes (as in this page), I really dive in...
Unfinished, and still needs collage and journaling :/
Using techniques from Dina Wakely's Art Journaling 101 class
Thanks A-dab-adu for recommending that class! It was really fun!

p. 6 Hearing flute music through the bedroom window and lunch at Banana Leaf in Lake Market, where the waiters were plenty but they all stood against the wall, offering little service.
p. 7 Walking through different neighborhoods to visit Fab India and By Loom. Our first auto-rickshaw ride (my favorite form of transportation there) and a concert! Punjabi for dinner and walking quietly past sleeping street people, music softly playing under the traffic noise.
191118: I am often asked what kind of materials and paper I use. When people learn that I paint in a Moleskine Pocket Diary, the next question is whether the watercolors or ink won't bleed on the back page. That's why I made a drawing in which I show, among other things, how different inks and colors affect the reverse side. The matchbox is not one of my working materials. It is for size comparison purposes only. Everything on the picture was drawn in original size.

191118: Ich werde häufig gefragt, was für Materialien und welches Papier ich verwende. Wenn die Leute erfahren, dass ich in einem Moleskine Pocket Diary male, ist die nächste Frage, ob die Aquarellfarben oder Tinte nicht durchschlagen. Deshalb habe ich eine Zeichnung angefertigt, auf der ich unter anderem zeige, wie sich verschiedene Tinten und Farben jeweils auf die Rückseite auswirken. Die Streichholzschachtel gehört nicht zu meinen Arbeitsmaterialien. Sie dient nur dem Größenvergleich. Alles auf dem Bild wurde in Originalgröße gezeichnet.

I started with a watercolor wash background then I used Oil pastels to draw the border and the boxes.
Then with glitter gel pens in different colors spelled out D-R-E-A-M. I did not know what I was going to write in the boxes when I drew them. It just so happens that Dream fits.
I photocopyied a page of writing out of "Collage UNleashed" by Traci Bautista at a reduced size on a toner black and white copier. Using a sheet of clear contact paper I put the copy print side to sticky side and make a transfer by soaking the whole thing in water until the paper started to come off and then I scrubbed the paper away. The contact paper was still sticky so it just sticks to the middle of the page.
Using a Ultra fine Sharpie I drew some lines and boxed connecting words that jumped out at me.
Lastly I journaled around the rest of the page
An unfinished page. I just got some of Tim Holtz's Distress Crackle paint, and you really can't see it that well unless you see the original size, but it's there. And the adrionick (sp?) color wash sprays. And it was easy to make speckles with since it's water-based :D I also got a new texture stamp thingy, and made those cool crack looking things. hehe
Oh! I made a new blog! Go check it out!! Pleaseeee! <3
Week 5: Embossing.
I used a transparent embossing powder to put the word "enjoy" on the bottom of the page.
On this page:
Distress Inks, Paper, Sharpie, Embossing Powder

not an earth shattering entry this one. nothing insightful. just a quick intro of rupert the new betta fish.
the girls were fighting. pissing me off. went to the aquarium store on another matter and the guy told me to bring the girls back.
wasn't easy though. i've never ever EVER returned any animal i've brought home...no matter how crazy they are! [let me refer you to exhibit A: matea!]
but i'd had it with the girls. hard to work at my desk when they're right there in front of me, joan crawford being so mean to sweet rhonda.
so that's that. when i left the store, he'd already plunked them into the girl betta tank and i spotted joan immediately....and was gratified to see that although she looked the best in the tank, she was finally cornered. serves that bitch right.
so, this is rupert. he's in janet's office and i'm sure she'll love him. they haven't met yet.
The sketches are designs for the page-a-day collage book I'm working on. I did a great job for the first 19 days of March, then I forgot the book at school and I'm now four days behind. Of course I forgot it again today. I plan to cut out the pieces for at least one day and make another sketch for today's entry. Tomorrow I need to put it in the car when I get to school.
Tiny manual turned gratitude journal. That's a standard post-it note on the front, for size comparison. The manual was from a SD card reader.

p.20 A lazy day, stark contrasts at the Forum Mall: shiny consumerism and dingy reality. Saying "please" is like begging here—waiting for my nonalcoholic drink named Romeo & Juliet. It never came.
p.21 Scenes from Kalighat: the goddess, a line of scared tourists walks through, baby with kohl, rituals we don't understand and the group of aggressive men outside who offered to take us in.
