Art Geeks

I recently joined Art Geeks at Gulfsprite.com. Every other week I get an art journaling prompt idea {including instructions and video} to help get me motivated to create art journal pages.

Here is my submission for the Art Geeks 20 challenge. It was a scavenger hunt, where we had to include all of these things into an art journal page:
1.Your mother's {or father's} favorite color.
2.A feather {real or drawn, may use image provided}
3.A womans face {all or partial; drawn, photo, collage}
4.A lyric from your favorite song
5.A key {see link below to download key image, you must use this image}
6.A bird {drawing, photo, collage}
I've included the lavender for my Mum and the song is Procul Harum's "A whiter shade of pale"
The bird came from a class by Dina Wakley last year but I've painted over it for a more muted look to fit with this page

Poetry in Motion with Dina Wakley at Art from the Heart

I'm having a wonderful weekend with gesso, paint, stencils, pan pastels etc. Nothing to show yet, but tomorrow. For now I'll just share the amazing page Dina has done in my journal.
