ajss - round 1 - returned home

as you can see from the above image, my signature finally returned home from the first round of the AJSS! this is actually the second one i made, as the first one went missing. it's a success all around. i adore the collage and drawn bits, particularly these film strips!

i always love receiving a piece back after it's made it through the hands of a bunch of artists. i think i'll continue working on this one. =D it has some pages that feel sort of empty still!

xox to all who participated in round one!

ajss - feb 2010

the art journal signature swap (round 2) has begun. i'm still waiting on my signature from round one to come home, and will scan it in when it does! round 2 is composed of 4 artists: nicci, pat, christy, and kathy. below are my entries into their signatures:

my entry into Christy B's signature. her book had a lot of color.

Pat's journal was mostly early tones with black and gold, so i did something more sketchy for it. this is my favorite of the three pieces, and contains a little memory writing. it's the most like a journal entry.

i was the first person to add work to these (other than the artist who created it), so i'm looking forward to see what others do with them!
