I’ve been playing about in my art journal. I love the fact that I can sit quietly (or not so quietly if I fancy the music on) and just play with paints, pencils, crayons and whatever else I fancy and really lose myself. My mood has been a bit low of late, blame it on the weather or hormones or both so I have not been the most chatty person to be around but sitting with my art journal has been great therapy for me. I feel calm and peaceful just playing away.
For this page I started out with the image which is from Crow About Studios. She’s funky and I love her orange hair. I took colour inspiration from the orange, red and yellow in the image and I also tried the image transfer technique using gel medium. It’s the first time I’ve done that and I really like how it turned out.
Thanks for stopping by!

Love this girl with her gorgeous hair.
ReplyDeleteI think you've found your creative spirit, same as Suzy .... Art journaling really suits you x
ReplyDeleteIt's a wonderful page. Brilliant bright colours.
ReplyDeleteI love your page, lovely warm and happy colors. I use my art journaling in much the same way. It does help get rid of the thunder clouds in my head. And a little bit of sunshine, be it sunshine on a journal page =), makes everything better.
ReplyDeleteI can totally identify with that sentiment! Love the warm colours.
