My Art Journal (Feb.19, Feb. 20)

So yesterday I began an Art Journal and have decided to do 1 entry a day. Below are my two entries.


This is my first entry. I really couldn't think of anything, so I began drawing a bunch of lines in one place and eventually made on big continuous one. I think that I will start using more black to where the lines are, almost like a disease is infecting all of these pretty colors.
[NOTE: It still isn't finished, so you can give suggestions as how I could make it better!]


So if you can't tell what it is suppose to be shaped like, its supposed to be a Hospital Cross. I tried to make the right side look like a circuit board while the left is a bunch of dollar bills.

To kind of reflect, I really like the idea of just spending even half an hour everyday just pulling out my art journal and just doing something. I mean, sure it may be not something that Picasso would make or anything, but its something. At first, I was a little apprehensive. I wasn't so sure whether it would be worth it, whether it would really benefit me. But even after two days I'm already seeing this activity will have some positive effects.
