2017 Art Journal: A Documented Life



Old Man Watching (acrylic paint, marker, April 2017)

The art journal continues to be a place of exploration, experiment, and lovely mishaps and fix-ups. I began keeping art journals a few days after Rob died.  This is year 2.  In some ways these images are a record of healing. It is where I document life in image and word. These pages have been made largely by hand and at times with some digital play. Hope you enjoy.
