It's been awhile! Art Journal Fun!

I have been neglecting my poor ole blog! Lots of things have happened. I moved, I opened an etsy shop! I stopped running the art group :/ I developed a sort of style, inspired by tons of artists and creative technique. I found my favorite supplies to use (watercolors, yummy) I still work every day on progressing my style and also my ability, practicing features and composition and pattern and detail. I still have so far to go! I've been enjoying destroying a small sketchbook with watercolor and pen and other fun stuff. It hates the watercolor, it doesn't absorb right, it kills the paper, but for some reason I really love it. Here are a few examples, I'm enjoying testing out new supplies and techniques in my journal, I should really invest in a nice watercolor art journal but ehh, I will just beat this one up for a while longer.
 


Anyway,  am thinking of doing some art challenges but I want to know where to find them! Let me know if you have any warm up art exercises, fun techniques to try, art challenges to partake in!
