Artful August

I went ahead and did another challenge for the month of August called Artful August facilitated by @rachelgreig on Instagram.  I decided to continue to work on index cards but in a small format and drew windows on each card for each week's prompts.  

Week 1
Leaves, Dots, Heart, Circles, Face Texture, Tree


Week 2
Bold, Water, Lines, Flower, Squares, Rainbow, Small


Week 3
Food, Torn, Silhouette, Words, Bird, Pattern, Ocean


Week 4
Marks, Butterflies, Triangles, Home, Collage, Animal, Fabric


Week 5
Love, Nature, Layers


I used a Stabilo marker for the windows, General's Watercolor Pencils for the artwork, and an .005 Micron for all the lettering and line work. (Oh, and glitter glue for LOVE.)

This was a fun challenge to do in this smaller format.  Each window took relatively a small amount of time to complete and the prompts were pretty straightforward and easy to come up with ideas.

September starts tomorrow and I have prepared a small square sketchbook for Squareathon which will run for 21 days in September.

  1. Water is lovely, very Japanese woodblock looking. And I like the lines, and nature. Very clever take on layers! And the collage one - wow, it's like a little magical world.
