Moj Moleskine je sve deblji...My Moleskine is fatter and fatter ...

Time flies ... (we never have enough time, except for  things what we want) ... catch him ... (you're faster ).... Be the mistress of time!

Nešto drugačije...something different

Oduvijek sam htjela okušati se u krasopisu i kaligrafiji, kupila par knjiga, pogledala nešto sadržaja na netu, ali, nekako, nije išlo s tim samoukim pristupom...mhm, ipak je kaligrafija umjetnost, zar ne?

Rješenje je bilo jednostavno nakon što sam pronašla učiteljicu :) To je sjajna Martha Lever čijem se radu dugo već divim...i zato sam se upisala u dvije njene kaligrafske radionice: CalligraFUN i Italic

I've always wanted to try calligraphy...I  bought a few books, watched some videos on the net, but somehow, it did not work that self-taught way... mhm,after all - calligraphy is  art, isn't it?

The decision was easy after I found a teacher:) This is a great artist Martha Lever! Her work are amazing, so, I took her CalligraFUN and Italic class

I, eto, vježbam poteze, počela sam s meni omiljenim ZIG markerima, a pera (Pilot Parallel pen) još čekam da stignu iz Slovenije...

I start practice with my favorite ZIG markers, Pilot Parallel pens I just ordered...

Faber Castell Polychromos bojica, Pitt pen marker, bijeli no name marker, na drugoj strani - koja nije nikako išla...prvi pokušaj prekriven gessom, pa pozadina obojana Neocolors II vodotopivim krejonima, potom šablona, olovka...

Faber Castell Polychromos colour pencil, Pitt pen and white pen (no name brand), and - on the second page (which could not manage the first): gesso (covering 1.st attempt...), Neocolors II in background and stencils, pencil...

kolaž, grafitne olovke, pit pen marker
collage, pencils and pit pen marker

Neuspješan pokušaj dobivanja tamnije boje kože Prismacolors bojicama, kolaž, pečati...
Unsuccessful attempt with Prismacolors (dark skin tones), collage, stamps...

:) čista zabava - gesso, Neocolors II, pečati, akrilne boje, sprejanje, kolaž...Tekst: It's OK to be photo model. I would look like photo model but I wont to be Leonardo da Vinci.

Fun, fun, fun :) Gesso, Neocolors II, stamps, acrylic colors, stenciling, collage...

..i još pokušaja s bojom u spreju (prvi put)...prema savjetima Marry Ann Moss koja nudi radionicu Stencilry (i kojoj ja, naravno, nisam odolila), no, ovo je tek 1. lekcija i ja još nemam dovoljno šablona, pa je ovo samo isprobavanje tehnike...
attempt to sprey stenciling with Marry Ann Moss  in workshop Pure Experimentation: Stencilry - 1.st lesson (I am beginner and I must to make or buy more stencils...so that is just attempt to technique)

I dalje kopiram Pam Carriker :) Copy of Pam Carriker picture...I really love her style :)
Akrili:

Isprobavam različite vrste boja - počela sam s Derwentovim Graphitint (vodotopive grafitne olovke), pa Inktense (akvarelne olovke), pearl akvarel boje, onda ima tragova bijelog markera  (white gelly roll Sakura), rozog Uniposca markera, malo pečata i StazOn-a...I love to try diferent colors, first I paint with Derwent Graphitint (coloured soluble graphite pencils), then with Inktense (watercolor pencils), pearl watercolors, Sakura white pen, stamps and StazOn ink...

Malo kolaža, akrila, šablona i ugljena...A little bit of collage, acrylic, stencils and ink pads, tinted chacoal:

Još jedna...just finished

I love Pam Carriker style :)

Art journaling pages

Isprobavam pribor (razne boje, medije), tehnike i stilove (pozadine, lica), polako učim...practice (colors, mediums, faces, backgrounds...),  I need more exercise :)

nedovršeno/stil working :)



Ne želim nikome reći, ali...I do not want to say anyone, but ..:))

Najvelikodušniji dar kojeg sam vidjela (i meni itekako potreban) - besplatni art tečaji  Julie Prichard i Chris  Cozen i to bivši i budući; SVI - ne mogu vjerovati...zato bih rado za to znala samo ja, pa da budem sretna dobitnica :) , ali, eto, javljam svima...:))

OMG...most generous gift that I ever saw (and I would really need that...) - Julie Prichard and Chris Cozen offering up the opportunity for one lucky (really lucky) person to win every class on The land of lost lunggage  for a lifetime - for a lifetime!!! Yay! - I can not believe ...so,  I do not want to tell others about that (nobody knows - so -   I will be the lucky winner xoxo), but, however - it appears to everyone:

Proljeće stiže....Spring arrives...
