Art Journaling for June

My son left for his last full day of school today. Exams next week, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, make ups Thursday and last day Friday. The year has certainly flown by. My daughter has loved her teacher and classmates so much this year, that she's not ready for it to end.

I, as usual, am so far behind on my to-do list, on what I thought I'd have completed as the end of the first half of 2011 looms. But I am keeping up with my art journaling! For now. Summer may change that. But since it's not officially summer yet, here's my first week of June pages:

The foundation for these pages is SU watercolour crayon circles. Doodled the stripey background with my FC Pitt markers. And filled in the circles with some lame doodles and journaling. Started journaling with the gel pens, but finished with the Pitt markers. I think the white laundry marker random doodles caused more of a problem for the gel pens than the markers.

I've even worked on this week's pages, but have nothing to share right now. Started out with a ribbon grid. We'll see how it turns out!
