I’ve been doing the Documented Life Project over at Art to the 5th Academy. Every month the challenges have a theme, and then each week, the challenges have a different focus…mediums, tools, etc. I have been loving it! I got started a bit late, but try to do as many weeks as I can. This week’s challenge was to use inks in your journal. Dyan Reaveley was the guest artist, and she has a great blog post on her interpretation here.

I decided to ink my background and then use my Speedball pen and India inks for the lettering. I’ve been trying to practice my hand lettering. I really enjoy it…but need to learn more. More on that later.

To finish my page, I decided to zentangle the anchor. I haven’t zentangled in a while, and I forgot how much I love it. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. I mean, I only stopped for dinner. I may have even been working on it while I made dinner. Luckily nothing burned…

Did you do something creative this weekend?
