Here are the next set of pages in my pocket doodle book. Page eight is decorated with colours and dots, whereas for page nine, I went a bit mad with big flowers.
Page 10 started as lines but ended up looking like skyscrapers, albeit at some odd angles. Page 11 has delicate gold lines and dots which look a bit like constellations.
I emphasised the swirly roses on page 12 and added some dots for background interest. Page 13 is just lines which together with the background colour remind me of a 1950s or 1960s print.
Page 14 had swirly roses in the background but I wanted to do something different so went for blocks and lines.
Page 15 started with blocks but then ended up with circles which are a Zentangle pattern and connecting circles. It reminds me a bit of a beaded necklace.
The book is a pleasure to work in and I am really enjoying filling in the pages.
I have got an idea for a project for next year which was inspired by watching a Youtube video by Nina Ribena who has been making
Artists' Trading Cards for each month. I am going to do the same and display them on my seasonal tree. I have cut and gessoed some greyboard shapes (2.5 x 3.5 inches) and am going to get the first one ready for 1st January 2020. I am really enjoying thinking about what I will put on each one.
