I have been playing in my art journal over the last couple of weeks. I have been looking at loads of art journal sites and found a lovely one called willowing.org I shamelessly copied a couple of her faces for future inspiration. I love the colours and style of her faces.
The two photos above I copied but the page underneath I did all by myself!
I have found loads of inspiration in this great book. Its filled with artists personal art journal pages.
I worked on these two pages on Sunday and Monday. I painted the pages first with acrylics, added some torn pages and painted again and then used PP or magazines for the collage. I used stamps on the pink butterfly one and then used watercolour pencils to colour in and do the journalling.I used gel medium to stick the collage down and then went over the whole page with it. I also added a bit of stickles.
My sister picked me up an expedit unit from Ikea on sunday! I have wanted one for ages but had to do some major tidying, throwing out, and moving around to fit it into my little craft room! I bought 3 of the Drona baskets for it as they are only £2.99 each. I managed to fill the baskets with crap and they hide it beautifully! I have put my Cricut on the top to use as my die cut area!
Thanks for looking,Sam x
