Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity!
why: About 18-19 weeks ago, I started a personal series using a graph paper 80 sheets journaling notebook for a Monday series of geometric designs springboarding from the famous artist Piet Mondrian. And don't forget to scroll all the way down to see 2 of his famous paintings. The credit for those is also listed there.
when: Monday, August 4, 2025
what: Project: #16 in My Mondrian Mondays Journal Page
how-to & vendor notes = colored vs blank/white spaces were filled in without use of a ruler; sometimes with a steady hand and sometimes not; I started with gray ==> dark brown ===> black ===> light brown ===> white spaces and magenta pink divided up what was remaining
1. journal notebook with elastic band closure; 80 graph/grid sheets; sold by Dollar General stores
2. set of four neutral colors retractable marker pens = Zebra Clickart; magenta marker from stash
3. pencil to outline the perimeter = stash
4. brown colored pencil to go over the penciling = stash
5. index card 4" x 6" to serve as the shape template = stash
