It’s been ages since I completed a page in my Rainbow Art Journal. I think perhaps I have over-stretched myself when it comes to art projects as I just never seem to get near this particular art journal. This particular page sat half-finished at ugly carbuncle stage for ages. I just wasn’t inspired to work on it when I did have extra free time because the page was a raging hot mess. However, a couple of days ago I forced myself to return to this page and complete it. I pushed through. It is never going to be my favourite page – it was really an experiment in combining red and purple – but it is a lot better than where it was headed so I at least feel like I have saved it. Best of all, now I feel like I have eradicated that page as a creative mental block.

I really like this one – the colors, the mirroring of hair, sleeves, and dress, and the embellishment. I’m glad that you worked through – its very freeing to get past a troublesome work in progress.
Thanks. It was definitely liberating to pull this page kicking and screaming into being complete and decent. It went through a very long ugly phase.
She’s the understudy in a Shakespearean play.
She’s definitely flamboyantly theatrical.
Ha! Your style just keeps getting better and better! She is strong and the colours are amazing!
Thank you. You are so kind. I do like the colour palette of this page and can see me using that again.
I think it’s a total success. You’ve created a real person here. And I love the color scheme.
Thank you, Claudia. This may be one of those pieces I cannot judge clearly because I know all the really ugly stages it went through.
