Day Twenty-Six of Thirty

This process is taking much longer than I thought that it would. I have now colored in all the lettering, and put in the black separation lines. I have lots of pencil lines, and will probably paint a buff color on the background just to clean these lines up. I think that I can define my lines better with the background paint. But that will take even longer, so I may reconsider. Anyway, here is the third day of my Red Book quote!

Day Twenty-four and Twenty-five of Thirty

This is the inside cover of my dream big journal. The quote is from C.G. Jung, speaking about his Red Book.
It is all hand lettered (which I finished last night) and tonight I started adding color.
The quote reads:
I should advise you to put it all down as beautifully as you can - in some beautifully bound book... think of it as your imagination. And try to paint it. Then when these things are in some prescious book you can go to the book and turn over the pages and for you it will be your church - your cathedral - the silent places of your spirit where you will find renewal. If anyone tells you that it is morbid or neurotic and you listen to them then you will lose your soul - for in that book is your soul. C.G. Jung The Red Book
