Art Challenge: Borders
Journal Prompt: "Borderline feels like I'm going to lose my mind."
So originally because of the journal prompt I was thinking crazy, coo-coo and it made me think of a funky looking bird so I doodled one and then for the border I wrote out the entire journal prompt around the page with swirls and very loose letters.
I hated it and it sat while I did some more thinking. I had absolutely no ideas whatsoever so I covered it lightly with gesso and went from there. The quirky bird was totally hidden when I was done and I had background and border I could live with but still had no clues.
I finally went in search of a quote and found one that I liked. Then I called it done.
Now I need to get started on the next challenge page.
You just keep on pushing my love (of your journals) over the borderline! But I cannot remember WHO sang it.Feels like I'm going to lose my mind...
ReplyDeleteA total change for the best

ReplyDeleteLove the colors and the quote...another fabulous creation.

ReplyDeleteYet the bird is still under that creation. That was my thought anyway. I love this and the colors are awesome.

ReplyDeleteWell done you for finishing another page and a great one it is too!
ReplyDeleteAWESOME quote, oh great talented one!!!!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteFabulous page, love how you used the prompt as your border, inspired!
ReplyDeleteLove that quote! Far too often I've had enough! :) You're making me want to journal as soon as tax season is over!
ReplyDeleteWell, I sure like that quote. I've had to "give up" on a few things in my life, and it doesn't feel good, but to NEVER quit may not always make sense.
