Two whimsical sketches
I like to have my art journals filled until the last page, so I literally took my CANSON ART ONE art journal back from the stack and decided to fill in the pages that were left so that I can finish this bulky journal...

Happy, silly animals
Having a little one has inspired me to create childish and funny animal shapes that look so gorgeous, at least to my eyes. And since I got started, I think I’m going to try drawing a cat or a cow or who knows what other animal… Just for fun! Având un copil mic am fost inspirată să creez animale în forme anuzante și copilărești care arată atât de minunat, cel puțin așa mi se pare mie. Și cum m am pornit, cred că o sa desenez și o pisicuță sau o văcuță sau cine știe ce alt animal… Așa, doar ca să mă distrez! It all started with a sketch…

Welcome, July!
I'm still recovering and meanwhile I'm taking bits of time to create quick art journal pages to slowly return to my art routine. I really miss painting with acrylic paints, but right now I focus on watercolors and simpke sketches that are easy and fast to create.

I’m still using “fast” art supplies – those that can be used anywhere, anytime, and are fast-drying, since I don’t have time to wait for the paint to dry before I move to the next step. Because I painted the face leaving almost no space for lettering, I had no place left for the quote. This brought me to writing in her hair. And I love how this turned out! I used Inktense Pencils and Koh-i-noor watercolor pencils, and a white POSCA marker to highlight her…

The Quoted Pages – ENTHUSIASM is the stream that drives the engine
Although I like drawing faces, my journal pages are sometimes just filed with random drawings of flowers, leaves or simply circles, like the one today. I was struggling with the desire to draw a face, when I decided to go for this simple circling surrounded by leaves, if I may call those leaves. And as you can see, lately I started to digitally edit my journal pages. If you wonder, I’m using PicsArt for the editing part, so if you want to try it, you can install the app in Google Play or Apple iTunes. See you soon, Cristina
