Art Journal Page 244

 Hi everyone

This page was the first page I've done in almost three years! The recent few I've uploaded were done way back in 2019 - I had only just edited and uploaded them.

It's weird how similar this page is to the previous page (#243).

I am enjoying getting back into my art journals and playing.

Art Journal Page 243

 Hi everyone!

This page was done almost 3 years ago! I struggled to work out what paints and mediums I used on this page so I apologise for that. I am now back into my art journaling and feeling much better so look out for weekly videos and weekly live streams! Please let me know what you would like to see me do.

Blind 6 Challenge Art Journal Page - Simplicity

Hi everyone!

Today's blind 6 challenge involved adding a few more of one of the products I chose - the Magical powders!

So I 'blindly' chose tea dye distress oxide, stream Color Wash, emerald green FW acrylic ink, bundled sage distress ink reinker, cadmium yellow deep acrylic paint and bratwurst brown Magical powders!

This didn't seem like it was going to work!!! Until we decided to apply the magical powders using white Dylusions spray! When that magic happened we decided to use all the other colours of Magical powders I owned (I only own 5 LOL).

The effect was just so pretty that all we decided to do was add some black top and bottom borders, a bit of stencilling in black and a quote in black! Just love how this page turned out!!!

Wish Big Journal Page

Hi everyone!

So today's stream I decided to use my watercolour journal (gifted to me by Zandra). I had no idea what I wanted to create on the page and just let the girls in the chat lead the way, which they did LOL.

So after adding my acrylic paints to the page Kathy and Eileen said I should try to use distress oxide inks over the acrylic. OK, challenge set LOL. I must say it looked awesome! I really love the different shades of brightness from the acrylics against the oxides!

Once we were happy with the background I thought it looked magical so decided to add a fairy! That done, I added a tree to the page then the title. Voila! All in an hour's time too! It really can be done LOL
