Good morning, good morning on this gray and rainy day… luckely the light in my atelier is always bright as we live on the third floor and the windows in my atelier are located to the North-West. My desk is ready to play, I started already on a new Chronicles art journal page but there is also two books I bought yesterday in a second hand store on my desk. My fingers itch to start altering the Science book, but I will put it aside for now as there is too much I want (have) to do first. Have a look at my desk…<\/p>\n

Why do I post a photo of my desk, you may ask? That is because it is Wednesday… What\u2019s On Your Work desk? Wednesday! <\/em>This ‘event’ is hosted by Julia from the UK. Artists from all over the world post a photo of their desk on their blog and leave a link at Julia\u2019s blog. More info about woyww can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Documented Life Project
\n<\/strong>Last week I created several art journal pages for The Documented Life Project and caught up with the challenges I’d missed. The page I created for DLP #9 is to be found in this post,<\/a> today I show you what I created for challenge #10<\/p>\n

March 7<\/a>
\nMarch Theme:<\/strong> Making Your Mark (Doodles & Mark Making)<\/em>
\nArt Challenge:<\/strong> As A Layer Element
\nJournal Prompt:<\/strong> Surviving the Elements<\/p>\n

\"DLP-10-makingmarks\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For the Documented Life Project<\/a> I work on old book pages. For challenge #10 I covered the page with a thin layer of gesso (you can still see some text shimmer through.) I smeared extra gesso on some parts of the page, which I heated with a heat gun. The gesso starts bubbling then, resulting in nice texture. I glued on some band aid, scraps of paper and a cut out photo. The photo shows a child on the run for a flood – it is cut out from a book about the ‘Watersnoodramp 1953’ (flood disaster of 1953<\/a>) The paper scrap torn out of a dictionary says ‘flood’. I stamped with bubble wrap plastic and ribbed cardboard to ‘make my mark’ and doodled some circles. I sprayed just a little bit of graphite spray ink in the right top corner and the cut out text – glued onto the page – completes the ‘story.’<\/p>\n

Thanks for stopping by my blog today, and when there’s a flood in your part of the world: run. If it is only raining, this might be a nice way to approach it:<\/p>\n

Let the rain kiss you.
\nLet the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops.
\nLet the rain sing you a lullaby.<\/em>
\n~ Langston Hughes ~<\/p>\n
