Hello,
the month is nearly over and it took me forever to start my work on this:

Odd Headgear - Mix it Monthly

When I first started out I was thinking about doing and ice-cream hat, but then I saw a picture of St.Basil's Cathedral in Moscow and immediately changed my mind.....and this is what happened!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This month the Art Journal Journey is about silence.....something that I often miss in my daily routine...
as soon as I think of the word silence dandy lions come into my mind. There is nothing more peaceful to me, than to watch the seeds of the dandy lion fly.... enjoy my inner silence....

Light and Dark

Oh no,
I am sorry - I haven't been very creative on this theme.......Light and Dark..... http://art-journal-journey.blogspot.co.at/   isn't everything we see made up by light and dark, since it's all we see - aside from the colors of course....
well here is my photo:

Hello,
nice to have you here!
Doors / Türen is the theme of the Art Journal Journey this month.
Doors....
Usually when I "do art" I think a lot.....maybe too much sometimes....so basically my art is in my head for at least a week or two. I think, I read, I research....and then finally I start. 
I have been reading Frank Kafka's Metamorphosis ("Die Verwandlung") with my students the past weeks and doors are a key element in his work. So Kafka inspired me to do something on doors.

In case you haven't had a chance to read it yet, try the free e-book! (Links above!)


I did two pieces. This one is the one I like most, but then my daughter (5) told me I should put the bug up on the top, because they can crawl everywhere.....
and I tried....unfortunately the printer pulled in my paper wrong so it looks a bit off!
Additionally, I am not sure if you can actually see, that I drew with metallic crayons! (I am sorry about the lousy scan, it is the first time, I am not happy with how the scans turned out!)

I hope, you enjoyed my work!
Have a nice day....and come back soon!

Hello,

She-Art is the subject...... well, I thought I am a woman - to me everything I do seems feminine...
so I really went on a trip though all the links and I gave my very best (so far ;)):
