If you love the life you live ...


I'm working in my new Moleskine and pretending its not an object of desire that can't be tarnished with bad art. I like the way that the paper 'cockles' when you put water on it - not so perfect now are you, hmmm?... Beth has gone to Max's birthday party with all his mates, she won't be staying for the sleepover................

Your work is wonderful. About "being intimidated by blank spaces" I guess we all are. The blank sheets are the first challenge the artist has to face before every single work. Isnt´it? But you are doing well!Very well!

Great sketch. Isn't it great to just deface that first page. It makes the rest of the journal so much easier to work in.

I love the effect of the background color! It adds so much mood.

Not so happy to hear that someone as good as you still struggles with the first page anxiety. I was hoping to grow out of that when I got better!
