The cool thing here is that these pages were originally just "rolled off brayer" from the gelli plate! I punched some hearts and inked around them..added a tag with me and the hubs' pic and stamped with "two sticks" and "happy happy" from Stampotique. Easy!
I just got back from visiting family out of town and was sketching in my mini journal ALOT...I did alot of waiting .
So.. posting pics here sketching and doodling from the kitchen table... I used my inktense pencils, pit pen and water...
A great way to pass the time, document my trip and play with inktense pencils-love!
Below I am just sharing a few of my FIRST sketches from school..last year..It is scary but you gotta start somewhere right?
Just simple items from my house..yes..the "voo-doo doll" is a tooth pick holder :)
My f a v o r i t e tea kettle...A LOT of shading..
A bottle of oil and my little wooden candle holder from New Mexico...not too thrilled with this one..
And ofcourse the all- important paint brush jar..
The bottom line here...It is not easy putting this stuff "out there" but sometimes it helps..to get braver. I am still practicing and hope to inspire others to show their stuff! Thanks for looking :)

Oh wow!!. These are stunning sketches, Jane. The shading is perfect. I too, once said I can't draw ... then I tried and couldn't stop ever since :). Hugs.
Well you know I am loving your art journal pages. And I mean LOVE. And your sketches my friend are amazing.
Hugs~
Dear Jane, you are a seriously talented artist! I would never have guesses that those were some of your first sketches from school if you'd not said so. I wish I could draw a fraction as well as you (I like to joke that I can barely draw stick men - I jest, but only barely).
