November's B6 Forced Trial Week 48: Nov 26 - Nov 25"She stands in tattered gold Tossing bits of amber and jade Jewels of a year grown old: November." Zephyr Ware Tarver 1886-1974 November's B6 Forced Trial Week 46 & 47: Nov 12 - Nov 25“ I like Spring but it is too young. I like Summer but it is too proud. So I like best of all Autumn because its tone is mellower, its colors are richer, and it is tinged with a little sorrow. It's golden richness speaks not of the innocence of Spring nor the power of Summer, but the mellowness and kindly wisdom of approaching age. It knows the limitation of life and it is content.” by Lin Yutang November's B6 Forced Trial Week 44 & 45: Oct 29 - Nov 11One of the things I have noticed in these last few months is that I have a lot of empty space during my weeklies. Not always, but more than I like, so... I’m trading in weekly planner space for more blank pages. Well, I’m trying it anyway. We’ll see how it goes, yeah? . . . “The month of November makes me feel that life is passing more quickly. In an effort to slow it down, I try to fill the hours more meaningfully.” by Henry Rollins November's B6 Forced TrialNovember’s B6 Slim Forced Trial: In September, I tried the B6 size but was loving the decorating of the outer borders. For November, I cut the sides off to force myself to only concentrate on the content space. . . .

I was only able to get a few September Before the Pen photos. I was trying to see how I liked the B6 Slim Size, hence the artwork on around the edges. After the Pen post coming soon.

"After the Pen" in the journaling community means what does a plournal look like after it has been used for the week. Here are mine for June 2018. June Month & TrackersWeek 23I absolutely LOVED the oceans theme that I'll be sure to repeat it next June for Oceans Month. Besides getting to try so many cool doodles, I learned so much and was able to see wonders I never imagined. Week 24For the budding "artist / doodler", Pinterest is the best. place. ever. Week 25As you can see by weeks end of 25 and the majority of 26, my plournal was just kind of pretty to look at instead of functional. Sometimes that happens. Week 26SUBSCRIBE

I was unable to complete my doodle challenge for May but have high hopes for June. I don't have a designated list of art to draw, instead relying on what catches my fancy from my social media feeds, news stories, or perhaps even memories. I love the sea. I miss the sea. In searching for quotes for the month of June, I ran across one I think I will adopt. I see a developing trend of not finishing the challenges I set for myself. It could be because after so many days in the month, I can't really call them "doodles" and that is something I need to correct within myself... (It's just supposed to be a g*dd*m DOODLE!) It could be because I get a little busy towards the end of the month... we'll see. I doing SPACE next month. It should be just coloring, basically. (LOL) Anyhow, I loved the things I learned this month. June 19 - "This Japanese dragon symbolized the power of the ocean, had a large mouth, and was able to transform into a human shape. Ryūjin lived in Ryūgū-jō, his palace under the sea built out of red and white coral, from where he controlled the tides with magical tide jewels. Sea turtles, fish and jellyfish are often depicted as Ryūjin's servants." Information from Wikipedia
June 14 - “Ten years ago, out in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico, a ROV employed by the Shell Oil Company was quietly moving through the chilled, dark waters of Alaminos Canyon. It was nearly 8,000 feet below the ocean’s surface, creeping along, inspecting the underwater area around the Perdido oil platform (the deepest offshore drilling site in the world) when its operator came upon a creature that inhabits both the depths of the ocean and the subconscious mind. The strange being from below was a “long-arm squid,” a 26-foot-long nightmare with elbowed tentacles and pulsating fins that undulate in a way that says: My kind were here for eons before you, and will be here for eons after you.” - from Matthew Hart at the @Nerdist - my friend Scott showed me this one, too. . . .
June 11 - Guineafowl Pufferfish - unfinished - finished piece coming soon June 9 & 10 - Octlantis; scientists discovered a small octopus city where members of the gloomy octopus species congregate living in dens made of sand and shells. There was a similar site discovered in 2009 called Octopolis. Story by Science Alert here
