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.

Yummy Tomatoes
Every spring I try my hand at planting tomatoes. Sometimes I have fairly good results, and sometimes not so hot. I once heard someone joke that their first home-grown tomato only cost them $100.
After painting the pages with lime green paint, I used a holey sponge to apply a darker green paint as a border. Wrote the title words with a medium size Prismacolor pen, and used a smaller nib to add the little flowers. Colored with yellow and red Prismacolor pencils, as well as using a green one to shade the right sides of the letters.
