Variations
As usual, once I'm "finished" a digital collage, I can't help playing around with it to create different looks or concepts. Here are two variations on the collage from the previous post.

Latest Digital Collage
This collage was created using several images from artfreebies.com, a site I recently (and very happily) discovered--including the pretty sketch of the gypsy with the crystal ball. I also used paisley images of my own design, and a photo we took of the ocean at the Outer Banks of NC. I also added some lighting effects I hadn't tried before. My tentative title is "What Will The Day Hold in Store?" or something similar. I like her!

Pan Pastels
Oh, my...another addictive art supply. I've discovered Pan Pastels, a new type of pastel that is very fine, soft, and low-dust. (Thanks for the birthday money, Ilene! :) They come in individual pans and in sets too, and have little sponge applicators of all shapes and sizes with them. My discovery coincided with the desire to start "daily" art journaling again, just for myself at home. The pastels cover a page so smoothly and quickly, and with such rich color, that when presented with a gift certificate for Jerry's Artarama (thanks for the Chanukah gift, Ryan!) I ordered more colors. Hopefully I'll post something here soon that I've done, although my daily journaling tends to be kind of personal at times. Here's a photo from the Internet in the meantime.
