This is so much fun to draw whatever comes to my mind after reading. Recently I discovered audiobooks for myself. I listen and draw! Is there anything better?

Two absolutely diffrent reads. The Book of the Law by Aleister Crowley and a children's story by my friend.

MAGIC WEEK 2

13:48

Getmessy Artjournal is exploring Magic in literature this week.

There is a great novel Master and Margarita by M.Bulgakov. It is such a versatile work that explores many subjects. It is very powerful and has been studied since it was published. The main question of it is whether there's good and evil, right or wrong.

“But would you kindly ponder this question: What would your good do if
evil didn't exist, and what would the earth look like if all the shadows
disappeared? After all, shadows are cast by things and people. Here is the
shadow of my sword. But shadows also come from trees and living beings.
Do you want to strip the earth of all trees and living things just because
of your fantasy of enjoying naked light? You're stupid.”

MAGIC

17:35

Getmessy New Season of Magic is here! It's all pretty exciting for me. Once I knew this season's theme I had images rushing through my mind. Mostly black blue glitter spacemen and aliens!

I started artjournaling this year with the season of Love. It's been such a crazy and fun journey so far. I'm sure it's only the beginning. The beginning of seeing my creative side, discovery of what is there, what I like, what it all means. Right now it's pure magic that I combine paper, paints, pencils and enjoy the process. Being able to sit down and do something with hands and not bothering why I do it is truely magical.

I started listening to a great book by Elizabeth Gilbert "Big Magic". A lot of things put so wisely together! A lot of things made simple! Listening and doodling is magic

Artjournaling

15:18

I like art workshops and tutorials. They give me new ideas and I experiment in my artjournals. At the moment I'm on a big break from taking workshops till New Year. It seems like I have a whole bag of techniques that I need to explore on my own. I want to let myself go and see in which direction it will lead me!

Right now it's all about paint, roller pens and enjoying mixing colours.

Travel Journal

18:01

This is my second Travel Journal. I had no idea it was going to turn up like this. I had my Travel Book with me. I tried to use it but it didn't work out for me. These blank bounded pages were supposed to be my doodling place.

This is what happened! I had to make an extra zine and when I came back I sewed the signature inside.

I've been playing with making illustrations lately.

I was very intrigued by The Bruners, the work by Cathy Rosoff. It's so fun putting images on paper while reading. Great story! This is the first time I was doing something like this.
