The Dignity of a Man..... art journaling

THE DIGNITY OF A MAN LIES IN HIS ABILITY TO FACE REALITY IN ALL ITS MEANINGLESSNESS.  

MARTIN ESSLIN

On these journal pages you will find all kinds of marks made from found materials. 

 The random black lines are a rubber band wrapped around a roller and rollered through acrylic paint. 

 The star is a rubber stamp I made out of a school sized pencil eraser.  The foil square is Chinese joss paper found at the Asian market.  

 It pays to go to the dollar store too and see what you can find.  There is a brown print made from the bottom of a pair of flip flops I bought at the 2 euro store.  You can cut it to size.  The fun of it is in the repurposing of ordinary stuff.
