ALWAYS Follow The Rules

Or don't.  That's what this page was supposed to represent.  This was one of the first pages I did in my big journal back in 2010.  My college professors were sticklers for rules.  One of them literally.  A one point red rule (a thin red line).  I drew more of those one year than I care to think about trying to make one of my professors happy. And looking back, that wasn't really what was going to make him happy anyway.  I didn't know what my style was or how to begin to express myself visually.  It has taken a long, long time to not worry about what my professors would think of my creations.  But now that I'm there, it's a much happier place for me.

  1. Beautiful Journaling Shelly! You know I relate to this as we've had the discussion a few times. You rebel you! ♥ You keep writing your own rules. It is an amazing thing to watch.
