Art Journal Every Day: Daily Doodlings

If you're new to Art Journal Every Day, there is a short introduction here.  All of the previous posts can be found archived here.  There is a flickr group for sharing right here.  Remember, it's just ten minutes of nourishing your creative self every day!  No need to finish anything or even like it.  If you've done some art journaling this week and you've blogged about it, or put it on flickr, please leave a link in the linky list at the end of this post.  Thanks!

Happy Friday!  As I've mentioned before, I go through phases in my art journal.  I seem to be in a doodle-y phase at the moment.  No pages seems complete without at least a little bit of pen work to enhance it.  Check it out:

This is an image I found in a magazine enhanced with some pen and paint play.

I've always found that if you make the eyes on a face arresting, the rest of the face hardly matters.

I've been calling these my tribal faces.

The "hello" and the "flower" are leftover pieces from my ScanNCut workshop at CHA.  I love finding a home for all my leftover junque in my art journal!

There's a lot of stamping going on on this page.  Can you guess why?

The pages are from December!  And December was when I started my #CarveDecember challenge of carving a stamp every single day in December.

Lots of pen and doodle work, even on these stamped designs!  A white pen really does make everything better!


The numbers are actually rub-ons.  I find myself falling back in love with rub-ons and digging through my stash looking for old rub-ons to use in my art journal.

Here are some of my favorite pens to use in my art journal (I figured someone would probably ask):
