Fabulous! You’re inspiring me to Just Do Some Art. I spend far too much time thinking about it and not doing it.

I did do it!! :smile_cat:

April’s prompts - I think I got them all in this time :orange_heart: it’s a heart shaped piece, the black background is not part of it.

I also made some progress on a piece I started using February’s prompts, but that’s still not done.

Love it! Especially the little wink of having “tape” on the dictionary page.

Haha, I wondered if anyone would notice that! In New Zealand we would say you deserve a chocolate fish!

The heart shaped is so good! How’d you manage to get it so symmetrical?! I always seem to rip it in the wrong place. :roll_eyes:

Thanks everybody!

@curiousfae I did sketch a rough heart on the back of the painted paper to follow. I often freehand when I’m using scissors, but with tearing I find it’s just a bit tricky to get the shape I want.

Having fun with Portrait Petite today. It felt good to get my journal out again.

I used a recent pic of @sheepBlue for the portrait on the right. :laughing: I wouldn’t say it looks like her but it was inspired by her.

Even Ruby did some faces with me:

:heart:
