IF: Hibernate


I was totally lacking creative inspiration for 'hibernate' as the topic for Illustration Friday this week, so I decided to just sit and create something.  I was really stressing trying to do something really original, so instead I just played with different mediums.  Watercolor, acrylic, marker, tissue paper and modge podge (I LOVE modge podge!).  So this is what happened ... and after I stopped trying so hard, I just had fun with it.  It's still hard not to judge myself, but I know I won't learn or improve my skills if I don't just keep trying and sharing my work.  I am a beginner and that's OK!

So thanks for viewing and for 'listening' (free therapy is great!!).  And I apologize for the photo of my sketchbook page ... my scanner is not cooperating these days.  Hope to figure that out soon!

    I love how you're allowing yourself to just play and experiment. It is the hardest thing to try to be okay with just doing and letting it be.
    You're doing a great job!
