September Journal Pages





Each month, dear reader...
I share my art journal pages
with you..

but I don't always like them..







They are often so close to the bone, 
that I find them

quite raw..
unsettling to view...









sometimes they are 
just ugly pages..
to me anyway..

What matters is that I do the work and show up each month
and find out what is really

going on in and around me..






this months started out totally differently
and ended up being more
about my inner child...







layers of paint and paper
and writing..

litter the pages...
like peeling wallpaper..









I carefully ripped back the layers...
to 
find myself again...









Ingredients:Acrylic paint, walnut ink, stencils, chalk pens, pencil, pen and ink, paper ephemera, antique photos, rub- ons. 






and now... to clean up the studio..
organization always leads to discovery..
funny how that works..

who knows what I will come up with..
but I will be sure to share it..
