Mine is called "Attitude!" and the "rules" are to interpret that however you see fit! It could be a song, a quote, a splat of paint, an angry rant, or perhaps you could give something an "attitude make-over" - eg Sleeping Beauty wakes herself up, leaves the castle and gets a job... anything! My pieces aren't perfect but as its an ongoing piece of work I've decided that's ok!!! Here's what I've done so far...
Front Cover...
Despite choosing this title myself I spent a long time deciding what to make my first piece about. I thought it being a journal I'd make it a little personal and write about tattooed women... how they are perceived, how they used to be perceived... and what its like to be a "real" one...
The second page folds out to reveal this DLO underneath...
I've written around my head what tattoos I have at the moment. The point is Im not a "performer" like the circus women or the alternative models, Im a "normal" woman with a "normal" job - but we do have one thing in common - and that's ATTITUDE! Hell yeah! :oD
It's looking Fab, great typography on your pages x
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Looking forward to getting this and adding some attitude of my own :D
ReplyDeletelove the colours and attitude
ReplyDeleteFabulous journal Sian - it looks great, can't wait to see how Nigel adds to it!
ReplyDeleteThis is looking fantastic - and here's a big HELL YEAH SISTER from another heavily inked girl who doesn't fancy a job in the circus - not yet anyway - not until my beard starts to grow :)
ReplyDeleteWhile you're on, could you do me a favour and post a pic of the mail art postcard you received from Irene if poss? I've seen it on her own blog and I know it's lush :) But it would be cool to have a pic of it on here too, cheers me dear
