Welcome to Mood Board Monday! Each week, Rebecca and I create an art journal spread based on a Mood Board either one of us creates or found online. Mostly Pinterest. 😊

Mood Board Monday #13 - learning to live again

Samie Kira February 19, 2018

This week, I decided to combine a lot of media. A LOT! I really wanted to play with color and layers and even brought back some older techniques I haven’t used in awhile. It’s so much fun to bring back something old with new abilities. Gotta say, I love how this one turned out!

See the video below!

Hi there! I'm Samantha Kira Harding, aka Samie, a writer, artist, & videographer from Phoenix, Arizona.

When I'm not rockin' it on freelance video & graphic design gigs, I'm painting, and writing. All. The. Time.

I exhibit locally in Phoenix & attend fairs with my artwork and book, 101 Mixed Media Techniques.

I've had Fibromyalgia/CFS for 17 years, along with an alphabet soup of medical issues. Creativity and art saved my life. I also write about grief, suicide/mental illness awareness, and chronic illness.

Here’s days 1-10 of #inktober. I decided to let go and just do something relaxing and low pressure. It took a bunch of lunch breaks to finish. Now to color and start a new one! I’ll also be taking a social media break for the next 10 days, but will return with new art and blog posts! #journalgirl #sketchbook #art #doodles #lds

My inktober has gone the relaxing route. This is a few days’ worth of doodles. It’s so relaxing and there’s no pressure to make a finished piece. I’ll use color on it later. #artjournal #inktober #journalgirl

Do you ever just love details? This spread was so much fun, a reworking of an early page from a demo I did a few months ago. Keep your eyes out for a blog post about the creation and how diving in without a plan can be most serendipitous. #journalgirl #mixedmedia #art #artjournal #sketchbook
