MMMJP #15 on Monday 28 July 2025

Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity!

why: About 18 weeks ago I started this journaling notebook with a focus on geometric inspirations from famous painter Piet Mondrian!! Green and white is not what I remember him for (using the primary colors of blue, red and yellow vs black and white spaces). MMMJP is code for My Mondrian Mondays Journal Page. 

when: #15 in my journaling notebook is being published on Monday night July 28, 2025; skipped last Monday because I had travelled over the weekend to spend time at my #45 high school graduating class reunion get-togethers

what: MMMJP #15

reversed:

side view; rotated 90 degrees =

practice scribbles for colored pencil tones and also the set of 4 marker pens used =

how-to & vendor notes for project #1:

1. various greens and 1 black colored pencils = stash (different companies: Crazy Art, Crayola, Liqui-Mark)

2. journaling notebook with 80 graph/grid sheets = sold by Dollar General Stores

3. black dual-tip marker - Art Skills (used only for perimeter and a few lines; ran out of ink)

4. set of 4 retractable marker pens (gray, black, dark brown and mid-brown) = Zebra Clickart

5. this time for #15, I've decided to do a horizontal layout of different sizes of blocks to be either colored green or left white/blank, black, gray, mid-brown or dark brown; the outlines/grid lines will be in black marker for stark contrast

6. and I forgot to label the bottom of the page; I'll do that after publishing and linking/sharing this posting...

3. Make My Monday; new on July 28; theme is masculine; this is my 2nd entry today; this design lends to masculine or neutral because it is clean lines and minimal colors

4. The Outlawz = Anything Goes In A Card Free Zone = still open for a few days; theme is the title; MY post has a journaling notebook entry with a geometric design
