I've been wanting to do more art journaling. I've been using my handy dandy sketchbook more but today I cracked open the journal - it's kind of a parchment-y paper that would probably be okay for ink. It wrinkles a little with watercolor though. I may go back to regular watercolor paper.
Anyway, last week I took a bunch of stuff to the county fair. My two paintings got a 2nd and 3rd place (talked about that last week if you missed it) in the professional category. But what was super cool was that my dried Cayenne peppers got a Best in Show in the Miscellaneous/Honey Canning category. So I thought I'd journal that.
I also really need to practice drawing from life more, so this was an exercise in that too. So, more journal pages to come, for sure.
Also, I'll be starting on a painting to donate to White County Animal Shelter for their fund raising at Liberty Square festival. Pretty excited about that, stay tuned. :)
