Sharing my pages for the GetMessy Messy List part 4. Somehow this set of prompts got me quite inspired to do quickly (unfortunately it took me a while to get this post out). I think it is also to do with having a smaller area to play with and getting most background done before putting…

Art Journal | Get Messy Season 8: Messy Lists Part 2
So far so good with keeping up with the Get Messy art journal Messy Lists challenge. I’m enjoying the time spent in the evenings to make my pages. One thing I have noticed though is that I realised I spent more time than needed on these pages… I seem to have reverted back into “over…
#foxandwatercolour Watercolour Challenge: April (Part 1)
When I saw this challenge on Instagram, I immediately jumped at the chance to get my watercolours out and try the challenge. I was also quite ecstatic to hear the positive ‘yes!’ I got from my colleagues when I brought up the subject with them joining this challenge. All hands on deck! Just amazing and…
Art Journal | Get Messy Season 8: Messy Lists Part 1
It’s Season 8 of the Get Messy art journal challenge. Last year I ended up only getting up to Season 2 and 3 because my full-time work got too hectic. And I also realise that I seem to overthink my pages and spent too much time visualising how it will look which in the end,…
2016 Analogue System
Pretty much before 2015 ended, a lot of people would already have clear idea on what choices they have made for their analogue system – planning and documenting. To be honest, I actually had a clear idea back in December. I started with this Stalogy for journaling… (#lifecapturedproject is not continuing in 2016 which is a…
Rediscovering my love for watercolours

Art Journaling | Get Messy Season of Brave
For some strange reason, I was stuck on the Season of Brave of the Get Messy Art Journal prompts. I think a lot to do with having too many ideas and not knowing how to start. Starting late, I ended up doing was doing the prompts in random order, whichever prompt was easy for me to…
Art Journaling | Get Messy Season of Love [Prompts 4, 5 and 6]
The last in the series for the Season of Love from the Get Messy Art Journal project , I finally managed to finish these pages. Always I end up starting and walking away from these unfinished because I get stuck about how to go about it. Not to mention some of the prompts brings out…

Another set of pages from my Get Messy Art Journal prompts which revolves on the topic: Season of Love. Prompt set #2 This spread is a several layers of paint and elements adhered, stapled or sewn down to the page. I initially thought of filling the entire page with names only to find out that I had already…
On Journaling | Part 2
A second chapter to my previous post on journaling, I thought I’d quickly write about another form of journal writing that I have decided to do in parallel. I have been inspired by my friend Vanessa’s art journals and after months of staying in the sidelines, I decided to sign up and do the Get…
