Today was a sleepy day for me. I had spent all day yesterday crocheting an order (woohoo!) and woke up with a little bit of a yarn hangover. At least that's what I am calling it. Anyways! As it is Sunday and art journal day I couldn't be lazy and sleep, though I really wanted to. Though sometimes when you are feeling a bit hazy and out of it, that is the best time to be creative. Because you don't have all your emotional restrictions in the way. Know what I mean? I didn't want to work with stamps today, so I went for a good old fashioned doodle. Starting with a random cloud shape... Only I wasn't thinking of clouds. More like a thought bubble maybe. But then decided that wasn't really what I was thinking of either. I don't think I was actually thinking. Just grabbing whatever color marker I fancied and then adding things with it. Then I randomly decided I wanted a nice dripping effect. Using my all time favorite marker: Real Red. I was going for a spilled paint look, but uh....well... Ahem. Well I have been watching a lot of the Walking Dead recently... Moving on! The marker kept smudging on me because when I draw I sometimes get sweaty hands. I was not pleased. So I added some details to cover it up. But I didn't think it through on complexity. Half way through I kind of just wanted a nap! xD I then decided that it might be a great idea to sort of even out the "killer" atmosphere of the bottom of the page with "love" at the top. It got a little cutesy. And finally, to complete the page I added in some words to my "speech bubble". I combined a few of my favorite quotes from Pinterest: "Don't take life so seriously. It's not like you're getting out alive." and "When something goes wrong in your life, just yell PLOT TWIST and move on!" Kind of has a horrific Valentine's vibe doesn't it? Haha! What will I come up with next? Even I don't know.
