NaNoJouMo Day 6
Today’s prompt is “Gravity” by John Mayer.
Finally a song that I have heard before. The first thing that came to mind when hearing it was a vortex or a spinning tunnel leading to a dark place. I figured I would do a tile with the tangle vortex and another with the tangle paradox and see which I liked more. I liked paradox better. After that I had no idea where I was going. I listened to the song again and then sat there and stared at the page for about 5 minutes and then finished it up. My hand was a bit shakey so my handwriting came out messy. Probably too much art. Been busy not only doing NaNoJouMo but I’ve been doing AEDM, working on over 80 Christmas ATCs and some swaps. I will probably have to take a break from the atcs for a few days so I can have my hand relax a bit.

NaNoJouMo Day 5
Today’s prompt is Flowers in Your Hair by The Lumineers.
I had never heard this song before. I couldn’t get anything from this song. I heard it several times and still nothing. So I did the best I could.

NaNoJouMo Day 4
Today’s prompt is These are the Days by Van Morrison.
I had this idea of representing past events with bubbles or circles and connecting them with lines and then having unfinished lines representing future events. It didn’t come out like I wanted. I then decided to add a sihloette of an elderly couple dancing underneath all those events.

NaNoJouMo Day 3
Today’s prompt is If I Could Fly by Charity Chapman.
I like how this turned out despite the fact that I messed up Earth. My continents looked only like blobs so I had to try to fix it. So it is only a sort of representation of Earth.

NaNoJouMo Day 2
Today’s prompt is “Life is Free” by Arkana.
For this one I stared at the blank page for a while before deciding to journal about the dreams I had. I didn’t want to have it visible so I used Lesile Herger’s Sharpie Ghosting Technique. I then decided to use some of the lyrics. Unfortunately I glued them down in the wrong order but I actually like it that way. It sounds better to me.
