your work seems so bohemian-ish, ? how do manage to come up with so many ideas?
I play and experiment. I ask "what if?". I LOVE working in my journal. I LOVE trying new things.
Some tips for coming up with new ideas:
1. I rotate my supplies (including my collage supplies) so that they seem fresh and not the same ol' thing.
2. I vary the size of each journal I create. It helps to push me outside of my comfort zone.
3. I don't compare my work. I also don't beat myself up over pages that I don't love. If I'm not happy, I'll push the page some more. If I've done all I can, I'll turn the page and move on.
4. I work and play every day.
5. I keep my eyes open. I am always looking for new colors, patterns, shapes, etc.. in my daily life. I will pull colors from posters on the street, lines from a funny squiggle on the wall, etc... It's all about how you see things and keeping your eyes open.
I hope this helps!!
