Paper, Mixed Media, Art Journaling Craftalong 2024

My spring art journal is still in progress, but I did start another journal for doing bite-sized art. I made a list of around 100 prompts (started with a list I found online, but changed some and added several more.) Then I stuck it in the back of a blank journal (I have a few that I really want to use!) - my plan is to just pick a prompt and do something small with my morning coffee. The list at the back is like a numbered index, I saw a video where someone did something similar, and I liked the idea of adding the numbers and date.

I finished this one this morning, prompt ‘heart’.

Gah! Over your morning coffee! I cannot imagine free-handing that perfection so quickly or beautifully. And the lettering is just as perfect and lovely.

Thank you :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I did rough out the main bits in pencil first last night (otherwise I know I would make a spelling mistake or get the spacing wrong!) And I think it probably took two cups of coffee :smile:

Even pencil sketching first, that precision is quite beyond me unless I have a refernce image to work from! I envy your raw talent and artist’s eye and you are a continual source of inspiration.
