Subway Art

Today at MDS Monday, Heidi has a great sketch for us and she is challenging us to add a bit of subway art within our project.  Subway art is simply a group of words or phrases that centre around a common theme - and use a variety of different sizes and types of fonts within the design.

I love this picture of Allison at one of her dance competitions, so my subway art includes words and quotes about dance.  I've also included some flourishes which I've cropped or recoloured to suit my needs.

I have actually done a number of different subway art pieces... This first one is a journal cover just for doodling and "arting" in.  The ones that follow are pieces I created to have displayed during the seasons at my front door....


As you can see....I've fallen behind and need to get some spring type ones created! 

 Here is the sketch for this challenge...

Have fun with it!  Can't wait to see what you come up with!
  1. In your blog post you must mention that you are playing along with MDS Monday - we'd love it if you went one step further and linked back to the challenge blog and posted our challenge photo!
  2. Your project must be new and not posted prior to the MDS Monday challenge date.
  3. Enter as many times as you like!
  4. When linking your entry, please link directly to your blog post, not your entire blog. 
  5. Entries must be in by 11:59pm EST the following Friday (that means you have 12 full days to enter!)
  6. Have fun!

Thanks for stopping by,
Joan
