Art/Idea board: FILLED

I have spent the last couple of days compiling all my notes/art journaling magazine/books on my computer to have my Idea Board filled up. (Mostly at work...SHHHHH...) Today, I finished, printed them out, pasted them on sprayed cardstock...and this is the finished product. I love it! I used

(from Traci's website...and quite frankly the most amazing book EVER...filled with ideas and glorious pictures. I want to sleep with it under my pillow.)

 

 

 

ALL of these publications are yummy. Well-written, full of information...but more importantly, glorious, large, glossy pictures. I made this idea art board because I have a problem with going "I don't know what to do!" For me, I need prompts/ideas. This board is directly above my desk, and full of color, so I have no excuse :)

Also, inspired by Traci Bautista, I bought an 18x24" canvas yesterday! (eep!) I plan on doing a "Graffiti Wall" for my room. We shall see how that turns out...

It is a rainy sunday, and perfect for art-making.

Throwing Paint at a Wall

IS FUN! I am sure you all are like "Duh...of course its fun!" I bought a cork board to hang up above my art desk to put up ideas and inspiration for myself. It sat there for a day or so, looking all plain and boring. I decided it needed something...what would it be? Then I just felt like flinging paint at it! So that is what I did.

Of course, lots ended up on the wall.

It was a fun project, except it didn't work out AS well as expected, because it is a dark brown color, and covered in felt..or something similar. Nevertheless, it isn't boring now!

And my tools...
