Face 1 - a sketch in my face journal.
Face 2 - another sketch in my face journal.
Day 3 - Another sketch. I'm feeling a bit more confident. You can see my lines are getting a little darker. I'm still nervous to use anything besides a pencil at this point!
Day 4 - We had a snow day! I decided to just go for it! I tried collage...for the first time. I like the way she turned out, however, I will do a few things differently next time!
Day 5 - Another snow day! I got REALLY brave! I actually painted this in my art journal. It was VERY out of the box for me! I learned A LOT...about spacing and drawing a rough sketch...before painting...I'm learning to blend...BUT I need a lot more practice.
Day 6 - Back to a sketch today!
Day 7 - My first attempt at a Teesha Moore style collage! This piece is named after my daughter's best friend!
Well...there you have it! 7 of my 29 faces! I tried a lot of new techniques this week and I am feeling more confident in my sketches...so it has been a productive week in the studio!
Thanks for stopping by!
Expect miracles, laugh often, and always color outside the lines!

Love your first week of faces!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Claire.
DeleteI am new to all of this and I love your stuff! I had not heard of Teesh Moore...and even if I don't finish 29 faces I will definitely be trying her style. Thank you for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jen! Teesha has a lot of GREAT ideas for art journaling. It has been a wonderful experience for me...I'm often times too much of a perfectionist...and pages don't get finished! Good luck on all of your art adventures!
