Points of Two - Week 44

Hello and welcome to week fourty-four of the Points of Two Project! This week Kira and I interpreted "Between the Lines" for our theme! I started by adding gesso to the base of the page and then used my fingers to paint circles of color to the page.  I dipped the end of a skewer into sumi ink and "dragged" the end across the page to achieve the lines.  I added some swipes of white gesso around the circles, doodled around them with a charcoal pencil and used a circle rubber stamp to outline them as well!  Before journaling, I dribbled some black ink onto the page to create the splatters.

See that pinkish color between the circles?  There was another circle there and I messed it up so I had to cover it with gesso.  I kept working it and didn't like the results so I kept covering it.  As it is, I like the way the hint of color peeks through.

Points of Two is a year-long exploration into the differences in all of us. We aim to journal focusing on the same idea, but create very different pages – two points of view, two different styles, brought together to showcase the idea that there is no wrong way to journal and everything you create is art. Join us as we journal the year, creating and exploring the space between and discovering how small that gap really is. The "two" are: Me and Kira!
