The Black and White challenge this month for the Artist Journal Group at Bizzy B coincided nicely with the Fall Fearless and Fly challenge at Artists in Blogland. Anyone who knows me in real life or from this blog will know that I tend towards vibrant colours in my life and in my work.
I had fun trying out different brush strokes with black coloured gesso in this little hand made journal, but when I tackled the back cover colour snuck in.
I'm curious to see what wil happen when it is time to do the front cover and if I will need to add my usual blues and turquoises when I start journalling the inside pages.

Came over to visit from AEDM - these studies in black and white are really fascinating. What a neat idea for stretching your creativity! Thanks for sharing!
Love your explorations, but I know what you mean about missing colors. My next clay guild challenge is "monocromatic" and I'm having a tough time with shades of a single color. I need a "pop."
I am with you about the color thing! With this Fall Fearless challenge I have been playing around in B & W more than ever. Some of it good, some truly ugly. But I keep learning more and more as I experiment. Love love love your quote!
I love the motion in the B&W studies. And the last one made me giggle.

you achieved such wonderful texture with a limited palette. And smiling over your quote... Thank you for joining Fall Fearless and Fly this time around. I know the black and white was a really challenge!!
