Playing with Distress Oxide Sprays

Hi everyone!

I live streamed on my other YouTube channel today for the first time this year! I was a bit anxious about how it was going to go because I haven't been arting much lately. Most of my videos uploaded to YouTube within the past 3 months have been done for ages and just scheduled to upload weekly.

But I was happy to be getting together with my art buddies for the first time in months!

So today I played with the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Sprays, creating interesting backgrounds. I must admit that alone, the distress oxide sprays are ok, but when you add other mediums to them the page comes alive! I used various other brands of sprays, Magicals, and ink!

Blind 6 Colour Challenge - Purple Rain

Hi everyone!

So on today's live stream on YouTube I created a journal page based on the blind 6 colour challenge.

Blind 6 means that I blindly pick one of 6 mediums/products and create a page based on those picked, along with being able to use other mediums such as gesso, texture paste, stencils as well as black and white products. Black and white are not classed as 'colours'.

The products/mediums I blindly chose are listed below in the products used.
