52Questions | Week 3

 

Sharing this week's prompt from my 52Q group and the project/journal entry that I created to go along with it! 

Here's the prompt:

and then here's what I created for it:

Something kind of funny, I've noticed that each week my project gets bigger and bigger haha! I decided early on that I wasn't going to commit myself to using any one size or medium and I think it will actually be fun to see all of my projects together at the end of the year. Perhaps I'll create a fabric pocket to attach to the front of my art journal that will hold all the smaller cards/pages, etc.? Not sure yet. 

My art journal pictured here is actually an old book that was given to me by a friend a few years ago now. It's the Fireside Book of Favorite Songs selected and edited by Margaret Bradford Boni and arranged for piano by Norman Lloyd. I love it! It's got old illustrations coupled with sheet music. For this entry though I put gesso over the pages, you can see some of the music notes through the gesso here and there in real life, not so much in the photos. 

I'm so thankful for this group and weekly practice! So far it's felt so good to intentionally carve out a bit of time to be creative and reflect in this way.
