Blog:Unfinished work

I am in my studio and I have a list of things to do called Daily Commitments. Well as I look at my list I have not been real successful this week, at making all my commitments.  What have I gone and  done but  added more to this list of commitments. I joined another group called Journal52, it is about making a page a week and it is the 12th of January and I just joined last night. Wow I need that Superwoman cape.

 While looking at the list of what I wanted to do and what I needed to do I had made some promises to Sandee at Frosted Designs that I was going to use her stamps I had no idea what I was going to do so I thought abut the Journal52 group,and I was looking for somrething to make my Journal out of and in a stack of College books on design, when I was in this awful class (another whole blog) I found a Journal of my drawings and some good ideas and some bad ideas.  I started to flip through the pages and this project that was unfurnished and looked broken to me which is really my way of looking at Abstract  This vase that I sketched was to be made into a Abstract art design and I did break it into pieces. All of a sudden I though this is what Mixed Media really is to some people and I new it had to be fixed.So Off to find the Deep Red Cling Stamps, and some pens and watercolor crayons, I have never used, I went to work and this is what I did with my Unfinished project.  I named it Broken Promises, I am not sure why but it felt right. 

I am going to share some pictures and instructions on what I did to achieve a finished piece, from 10yrs ago.

Step one of Broken Promises.

This top picture is the original drawing and my attempt at making some abstract (Broken) I do not like to break up things I have always been a realistist painter and this was a great challenge to me. It made me very sad to do this We uses watered down acrylics and painted inside the drawn lines.

This is Step 2.  I had to fix it I was really unhappy with the  sloppy workmanship so I found my new box of water color crayons (by Sargent art box of 12)  and my favorite brush and went to work . Loved the Crayons.

 Step 3 I went into the stamping room and found all my new stamps and a old one and I was then in heaven because I had made my commitment to a very dear friend., and my self by using something new I had just purchased from Frosted Designs, their link will be on Grannys Facebook Page  and of the stamps below.

This is my finished Project I am very proud to no 

longer have BROKEN PROMISES AND TEARS. 

These are the poducts I used and they are listed below in the labels list.
