Art Journalling


I went to a fantastic Art Journalling class on Tuesday taught by Sarah Anderson at Paddy's Stamping Place.
I'd always been apprehensive about not knowing what to write about in an art journal but Sarah introduced the idea very gently by suggesting we start with pages based on images, stamps and things that we already like. Well I absolutely loved it and now my head is bursting with ideas on all sorts of subjects that I want to do a page about. I stayed up until 2am on Wed morning and until 1am this morning just playing with paints so I have plenty of painted pages to start working on.
The pages above are the first two that I've finished. I really don't want to stop playing - shame I won't be able to get to it much in the next few days but I shall be thinking about it and writing some ideas down for the next time I get my paints out.
