Journal Page



I had so much trouble with this one! As you can see from the earlier post (Frustrations) I was planning on collaging a drawing of mine of a tiger head.Then collaged bits of my papers, gave it a humanoid form. I did that but then started playing with the face, and eventually ended up with some sort of nightmarish creature.....kind of satanic apparition....O gosh, no way. I had to quickly (I thought) turn this creature into a gentler being....someone more like...us! So I corrected, pasted bits of paper over the mouth, modified nose, eyes, etc...for hours. Then today I continued to work several more hours. I decided to keep the ears. O well, I learned a few things along the way...good thing.

I was so drawn in by the lovely eyes and darling mouth that I missed the ears, until I read your post! She is a lovely little fairy that you should be proud of!
