Repeat and Alter
These next pages in my Anti Journal took hours and hours to do.
First I did all the drawing with a Faber Castell pen
And then I did all the colouring with my Inktense pencils and a water brush
I haven't 'critiqued' it yet, and I may not. I'm thinking of just decorating that speech bubble into silence. We are all our own worst critics and I'm trying my hardest not to do that within this book. It is for fun, for 'wrecking', for not being finicky and fussy.
Thanks so much for visiting. I do hope you leave me a word or two; they mean so much to me.
Keep a check on Carolyn, Karen & Lynn's blogs who all have 'Wreck this Journal' journals. I'm sure they would appreciate your visit to check out what they have done in their journals too.
Until next time take care and be well ~ TTFN
((hugs)) Mo :o)) x
What a lot of lovely little journals. Perhaps you should write 'Well done' in that space. Critique can be positive! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Valerie, I will try to heed your advice ((hugs))
DeleteI think you should write "STUNNING" or "BRAVO".
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of work, well done its fabulous.
Lynn xxx
ps. My friend Julie Waters said she thinks your work gets better and better and I have to agree.
Thank you so much Lynn, I'm pleased with it's colourfullness. Please thank Julie for me, she is very nice :o)) xx
DeleteHow cool, these are two fantastic page, love your drawing.
ReplyDeleteThanks ever so much Silvia :o))
DeleteStunning play in your journal No! You should be very proud of your accuracy and color blending knowledge as your pages are amazing. BREATHE is always a good word to write as it helps with so much:-) xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you MoH, your words are always kind and I appreciate them very much ((hugs)) xx
DeleteWow! Such a lot of work and the end result is well worth it. Great pages!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Carol, I have enjoyed doing some over a few evenings catching up with Downton Abbey, lol :o))
DeleteAwesome brilliant colored pages, that makes me cheerful, I need colors, cause outside it is rainy and dark.:
ReplyDeleteHave a good time,
hugs Anja
How kind you are Anja, thank you for your lovely comment :o))
DeleteIn your critique box write 'everybody loves this!'
ReplyDeleteSuch amazing patterns and great colours.... I think its fantastic!
Karen x
Thanks very much Karen ((hugs)) x
DeleteI love this page, its so bright and colourful. It makes me smile when i look at it. It must have taken a while though, I always lose track of time when colouring in :-P
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Caz, I lost time too, quite a few hours, lol ;-)
DeleteOK, I'm feeling a bit twitchy looking at this! I do love the colors and patterns, but I'm so glad this is in YOUR anti-journal and not mine!!
ReplyDeleteOh Sue you always make me laugh about your twitching at doodles, lol ((hugs))
DeleteNow I can imagine that was relaxing to create Mo... it looks like my zentangles but so much more ;D
ReplyDeleteVery theraputic too.
Bubble could read 'Joyful'
xoxo
Thank you Denise ((hugs)) If my work were like your zentangles I would have 'Magnificent' in the speech bubble! xoxox
DeleteGotta love those Inktense pencils! I think I have a crush on mine ;-) The colors are SO vibrant, as your page shows very well. I like it a LOT, all those different forms and patterns and colours are so cool and pretty. I am sure it took you a long time to complete, but as long as it's enjoyable and relaxing, who's counting the hours? :-)
ReplyDeleteA critique can indeed be positive, like a feedback or reflecion on what you enjoyed the most about the process, for instance. But it's of course up to you, so just leave it blank if you want to :-)

Bless you Bibi, you are so sweet, thanks very much; I really appreciate your words of encouragement. {{Hugs}} xox
DeleteWell you get a huge round of applause from me! I love the colours and the designs and can see that it took you ages to do because it is so neat as well as beautiful! Well done, this is a wonderful achievement Mo. I love it!! Hugs, Anne xx
ReplyDeleteWow, thank you very much Anne, I really appreciate that {{Hugs}} xox
DeleteHoly cow, Mo. You have gone well over and above what might have been expected of you for this spread. I KNOW how long it took to create these two pages, and what a labor intensive job it must have been. My hand cramped up just looking at everything (grin).
ReplyDeleteFabulous and fantastic, dear friend.
Thank you so much for your lovely words Elizabeth; you have made my heart swell with gratitude {{Hugs}} :o))
DeleteGood for you on finishing this Mo, it is delightful. Full of colour and lovely designs. Each square sits cohesively with its neighbour as well as making the whole. You should congratulate yourself.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Linda, that means a lot coming from you, the queen of doodles ((hugs)) x
DeleteWow what a lot of detail. It must have taken ages. I love the vibrancy of the page x
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Claire, I'm glad you like it :o)
DeleteThose would be beautiful framed for the wall! Have you seen the Elmer glue and watercolor art? Basically on watercolor paper you outline your design with white glue when dry fill in the sections with watercolors, very pretty 3-D work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Angela. No I haven't seen the glue and watercolour art. I will have to investigate :o))
DeleteLOVE it! Needed nothing else other than that speech bubble and the hours of work were worth it Mo. Jenny x
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Jenny ((hugs)) :o)
