For this prompt I drew a window, as if I am looking through the window how my garden is growing. I started with masking the frame with tape. I coloured my window blue and pink with waterpastels. I did some salt sprinkling over the water colored pieces, to get some structure. After everything was dry I took my microns and did draw the flowers and the window frame, some text and ready is my page.

Week 12 : How does your garden grow.

Week 11: Stars
This week I wanted to keep it simple. I drew some stars. When they were finished, I wanted to something on the background, but didn't know what. So I thought about the title or text or quote I wanted to use. The only thing that came upon my mind was the song Starry Starry Night. So I looked for the text of the song, and wrote it on the background. While I was writing I discovered the song was about a famous Dutch Painter (Vincent van Gogh). What a coincidence. After my text was finished I made the background blue with my pastels and with my colorpencils I made some shading in the text.
I had a lot of fun working on this one. As you can see, I put a picture of my page on the post, and I made some close ups of the stars. I put them together on 1 picture as you see!

Week 10 : Art for a cause
When I read the prompt I right knew what I should do. Something with Duchenne Heroes. My husband and 1 of my sons are going to bike this year with the Duchenne Heroes. It is a mountainbike tour over 700 km in 7 days through 4 countries. It is very heavy, but al those heroes are bike to raise money for research to find a medicine for Duchenne. It is a muscular dystrofy wich our daughter suffers, and that is very rare for a girl. So my page this week is to honnor all the duchenne Heroes and especially for the bikers of team Ride for Liz!

Week 9 : Color Swatch
Nadat ik ze opgeplakt had, heb ik met wasco een kleur laagje op de rest van de pagina gelegd, want ik had niet genoeg stalen voor de hele pagina. Vervolgens bewerkt met Gesso, en daar overheen met oranje geverfd. Vervolgens met een zwarte fineliner getekend en klaar is mijn pagina.

Week 8 : Found Poetry
Ik heb nog geprobeerd om van een willekeurige blz uit een boek een gedicht te maken, maar helaas, het poezie versje bleef maar door mijn hoofd spoken, dus heb ik dit versje geprint, de letters geplakt op een pagina die ik eerder goud had gemaakt (omdat ik verf overhad), en op de achtergrond een curvy grid getekend en gevuld. Rand gestempeld en klaar is mijn week 8 prompt : Found poetry, gevonden in een oud poezie album.
For Artjournal 52 this week there is the prompt : Found Poetry. I read this prompt and already my thoughts went to a poem written in my friends poem book (we call it Poezie album). But... found poetry is more finding a poem on a page in a book or magazine. Well I tried, but just couldn't get the poem out of my head. So I decided to do that little poem anyway on my journalpage. I had one page with golden paint from an earlier project, so I took that one, printed the poem, glued the words on the page, and made a background by drawing a grid pattern. After that a little bit of stamping on the border, and ready is my page.

Week 7 : When I Grow Up...
Voor de achtergrond van mijn blz wist ik ook al wat ik wilde gaan doen, nog voordat de prompt bekend was, ik had nl deze tutorial gezien, voor het marmeren van papier met scheerschuim en Inkt van Dylusions. Erg leuk om te doen, onvoorspelbaar maar prachtig resultaat.
Vervolgens een foto van mij zelf (10-12 jaar) erbij geplakt en gestart met het tekenen van lijnen voor het plaatsen van de tekst. Als laatste nog wat bloemen gestempeld en klaar is mijn blz.
