Doodled Magazine Faces

I've completed another couple of doodled girls - white pen work over recycled magazine faces...at least that was how these started. These progress photos show how they developed through my #arteveryday practice. 

Was thinking about adding a wash of colour to her garment but instead decided to use a moonlight pen in her hair....forgot that I hadn't given any treatment to her face and didn't like what I initially did on the mouth so had to add extra there! Oh well - it's all learning and I don't hate it (but I don't love it!)

Wash of colour over her garment = a tragedy averted cos I realised quickly that the pen I am using (uniball signo) is not waterproof! Wiped off and re-did the white pen work. To do that technique (which I did to such lovely effect HERE) you must use a waterproof pen like a sharpie paint pen. I do like how I am experimenting a bit more and learning along the way....Decided to go all out with colour using more moonlight pens for a big finish!!

I love taking the process photos and seeing how these evolve and the spread is transformed from the original glued magazine pictures

These have value for the meditative process of doing them no matter how they might turn out. I never know at the start how they will look finished! See all my recycled doodle journal art HERE.
