Art Journal Every Day: Update week 2!

Another week has passed...a week loaded with art journaling! (But....I felt the virus of creating a scrapbook layout for the first time since long, so maybe this might happen next week....!)
I finished two art journal pages this week and I am still on track with my January Daily.
I played with my watercolor paint:

Guess who was my inspiration for all those colorful leafs?! (lol) The pattern for these leafs is a zentangle pattern I bumped into, when I was searching for patterns for a zentangle ATC-swap. It is called Pokeleaf and I love it! I found some great letters in my stash to create the title, by tracing around them and painting these also.

Another page I did was all about doodling. I bought this second hand book last week:

It is an issue from 2007 and it is mostly about doodling on your scrapbooklayouts. But to me it is a book loaded with great ideas for doodles on my art journalpages!

To practice some doodling I made this art journal page:

Just to make a start I copied the big doodled flower from the cover of the book and from there on I created the rest of the page, by using ideas from the book. I colored the page wih my Sakura glaze pens.
While I was working on this page I noticed I was being the perfectionist again...coloring exactly between the lines, using the right colorcombinations, being careful not to destroy my page, etc....So you can imagine how I came up with the title! I really want to play more, which seems to be very hard for me. I want to be chaotic and messy on a page, see what happens, just for one time...and if I don't like it than it is ok, but I want to explore that road too!

In my previous blogpost you can see my January Daily update till January 10th. I finished day 11 also, so here it is:

TFL!
