A-Z Art Journal Magicamente

A series of art journal pages where I pick a word for each letter of the alphabet and journal about it day by day. To find out more about the beginning of this project, please read the first post here.

For the letter M, I chose the word magicamente, which is Italian for magically. I actually ripped it off the box of my coffee flavor for today’s page. I always refer to creating things as “magic” because it does seem so amazing that raw materials can be transformed into something so beautiful…whether a piece of cloth into a dress or paint into a masterpiece. The world of creating things has always been like magic to me. I went off writing on this page and just got sucked into the soothing repetition of doodling patterns…

For the letter L, I chose the word lonesome. We can all feel a bit lonely at times, even if there are lots of people around us. It’s about our feelings inside really. I realize it’s hard to see, but there’s black on black doodling in there…
