Calendar Girl #1


 
To keep my upcycling junk and reuse theme going again this year I decided to create a journal out of my 2014 calendar. This art journal is going to focus on girls and I am going to try to add more of the figure rather than just the face. My page started with a colour block pattern and then I began to paint/add detail on top.
 
 
I am going to share my painting over at Paint Party Friday and Mix it up Monthly.

    Another gorgeous girl...you need to gather this collection and do something with it...a New Calender or book of quotes?

    This is gorgeous, Clare! The text you put on the piece is wonderful. I wish I could think up things like that. The saying goes great with the beautiful lady.

    You must be making art about yourself, because you did make a beautiful piece!

    She is fab. Great challenge for 2015- both to draw more of the girl than just focus on the face and use a calendar.
