Pinhead

This I have to say was actually fun, fun, fun. I followed the teachers prompt in creating this page from one clipped out magazine picture that captured my imagination. Wow!
I didn't think it would come to me so easily. But I love tojournal. What do you think of my journal page?


I freely stroked yellow Caran d'arche paint onto the white journal page. Then I used a paint brush to flick three different colors around on the page. The flicks reminded me of the pinheads shape. So that was cool but not my intent when I started. lol. Then I glued on my magazine pic. Drew the blue pinheads out from the head. Wrote the letters "pinhead" on
each of the blue pinheads. I continued to draw lines out using my calligraphy pens and gel pens.

I found some really cool dots at Target for $1.99. That is what the pink dots are around the page. I even sprinkled a few on the pinheads coming out of her head. I wrote the phrases:
"I might be a pinhead But I'm not sure", "dress smart", "What's the question", "stay fit", and "think fun".
