Well today is rainy, so I am cleaning up and watching season two of True Blood. I love True Blood, so really its more watching than cleaning.
I saw a picture of stairs with arrows in this months vogue and loved the idea, so I drew in my own stairs and arrows. I often find ideas I want to use in my art from magazine. I write them down. Did I tell you am making a zine for myself. I wanted to challenge myself to make something and finish it. As how many journal making classes have I taken and never finished one yet. They are all sitting half made. So this zine will be about techniques with pictures how I do it what works and doesn't. I have already started by making an index and adding to it as I think of ideas. Then I think the index will need editing or I will never finish the zine. Next I am thinking of a name. I have already decided on the format. What do you do to challenge and motivate yourself?

Excellent work - love your page and what you've written, which is oh so true. Love those arrows - so typical of my life, which lately seems to go up and down and with very little clear direction. The idea of the Zine is great. I seem to spend my time doing bitty things of late but something bigger is always a challenge - something to work towards. Best of luck - hope you pull it off!
ReplyDeleteYou always inspire me! This page is great with all those arrows going every which way. That's how I feel most of the time!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the zine. I actually thought about doing one, too....but all I've done is think about it.
I always try to work outside of my comfort zone, to push myself. Most times it works but not always.
ReplyDeleteI've been toying with the idea of a zine as well. My problem is that I do so many different things that I wouldn't know what to do the zine about! But, if I do create one, we should definitely trade...
