Writers often use prompts and time limits to warm-up or unblock. I do much the same thing when I draw. I give myself a time limit. Usually 30 minutes. Then I pick a short story that I have already read,... Continue reading

Thanks for this post! Especially thank you for including all the links to your past posts about project life. While these photo journals have always been visually appealing to me, I wasn't sufficiently inspired at first to do this myself. But as time goes by, I am more an more interested, and now I can't wait to begin. Just yesterday, I was thinking that I needed to go back through all your posts and read everything you've written and look at the pics you've posted to help me get started. Thanks once again for posting everything today. Perfect timing for me! XOXO

I love stencils and cut some of my own and combine them with the ones I buy. The last time I used a stencil was a few days ago in my art journal. I would LOVE to win your feathers! I especially like the way you used them on the scrapbook page. I wouldn't have thought to use them as a background all by themselves, and it's stunning! Beautiful and dramatic! Thanks for the opportunity to win!

Yes! I belonged to a book of the month club that sent a 20th century classic, one a month, which were republished as special edition replicas of the originally published first editions. Love those books!

Experimental play with photo apps today. I'm very picky when it comes to photo apps. I research the heck out of them, then limit the number I use to a bare minimum. And there are only a handful that I'd... Continue reading

Love the page! I have a similar attraction to radiating lines. I used to use them all the time, took a break from it, and am just now starting to use them again. Love the look and all the potential of the lines.

Love them all! Your cupcake makes me hungry!

Making A Statement

From time to time throughout history, a discussion about the function of art resurfaces. I personally believe that art is above function. It needs nothing to justify its existence. But there is no denying that art can be used in... Continue reading

So Small

It's impossible to tell how tiny these pages are when you're viewing them online. This one fits in the palm of my hand with room to spare. The writing is miniscule. The back of this page was fortified with lots... Continue reading

One Page At A Time, For Now

This is page two in my Swatches journal. None of the pages in this tiny book are the same size or shape. That means that parts of both previous pages and next pages, peek through from behind the smaller pages.... Continue reading

Teeny-Tiny

The pages in my Swatches journal are really small. None of them are the same size. Each of them has a torn edge or two or three. Not four because they're sewn into the book. This is the first page.... Continue reading

Little Books

The most fun I ever had in a book binding workshop was several years ago. I had a really full schedule and could only participate in half of the workshop. We made raggedy little pamphlets lavishly collaged over with lots... Continue reading
