This blog was set up for the spreads that I do in my daily life art journal. It is simply a Mead Composition notebook where most of the pages have been transformed with acrylic paint, rubber stamps, magazine clippings, bits of my calligraphy, and my writing about whatever happened to me that day.

Day Lily
This is an example of the fun you can have writing with brush markers. Use the colors and characteristics of the object named in the words to bring it to life. Here I layered a darker orange over the base color and used yellow to create shadows. A black micro-pen created the outlines, dots, and "stamens". When you shadow letters, be sure to pick either the left or right side of each stroke and stay consistent throughout the whole word or phrase.
