Altered Book/Art Journal

As part of my “Creative Every Day” challenge for this year I’ve been working in an old book that was cut down and had a hole punched through the edge so it can be clasp shut with a chain.

Here are a few of the first projects I’ve done in it:

Opening Page

Pen, pencil, colored pencil

Front cover art

I also did a two-page spread of this lovely lady and her funk and funky hair:

Beginning design, ink & colored pencil

Design finished, ready for color!

Color added & complete

I have done a few other things since then but I’ll save them for another post. Have any of you been following the “Creative Every Day” challenge? What have you worked on?
