Zebra On the Move might be a appropriate title for this spread.  This piece reminds of several of Henri Rousseau’s works.

 You will notice as you view the zebra spreads that the zebras are moving across the spreads.  I love how the lines on the zebra contrast with the rest of the patterns in the spread.

Mini Journal No. 6 of 12 is all about zebras. As I reflect on this mini journal I have to also reflect on a comment yesterday by artist Jacki Long.  Jacki’s comment was about favorites.  It made me think about the ever changing idea of favorites.  We can have a favorite one minute and it can change to something else in yet another minute.  Favorites can evolve and actually one can have more than one favorite although the word does indicate preferred above all others. One could say I have many favorites and it does not mean that a previous favorite is now disliked.  So thanks Jacki for sparking a conversation in my brain about something that I had never really spent time thinking about.  Thoughts on the word favorite?

Now that I look at the last spread of the fifth mini journal in this series I am pleased that I did not do pen work this time.  I think each stood just fine without it.

Maybe I should call this mini The Jonathan Livingston Seagull journal.  Do you remember that book?

Again, no pen work but I did use Stabilo water solvable pencils.

Mini journal no. 5 of 12 spreads each have a face, an arrow, a seagull, and some writing.  I did not do pen work and think I should go back and do it.
