Art Journal Page 175

Hi everyone!

Don't you just love playing around with sprays on your journal pages? I do. But how stinking hard is it to work over the top of it??? Most pages need some black or white as final touches, whether it be in the form of the title or just some highlights, but it never ends up clean and white because all the sprays I use are reactive, so they shine through any white I add to the top layer *sigh*.

Today I tried to avoid the colour coming up through the white by adding some transparent gesso AND some workable fixative, all to no avail. Oh well, one day we might come up with something that will help, other than using white embossing powder.

I started off with a wipe-off page which must have had sprays and paints on it but it must have been wiped on there a long time ago because I can't remember which page they came from.

You can watch the full process video on YouTube by clicking HERE.
