Art Journalling with Dyan.


Had a fabulous day with Dyan yesterday doing one of her Art Journal classes. We made some pages first using newspaper, glue and gesso. When they were dry it was time for the paint- yay!
Then it was time to "blind" pick an emotion from Dyan's basket of prompts and add images and journalling. I picked Passion (the page above is the result) and Calm (the page below)

Two journal pages and a work in progress



Well here are 2 more journal pages - sorry they are a bit soppy! LOL! All that red just called out "Hearts and flowers" to me.

I do love the colours on the "Song of the Sea" page but it's a bit bare and I feel it needs some more images - just still looking for the right ones to complete it. I've been looking for ages for some vintage seashells/mermaids, but not found them yet.

Thanks for looking x

Claudine Tag

This is one of the Tags I made at Dayan's class at Art from the Heart on Tuesday. Background is Claudine Hellmuth Paints and Tim Holtz stamps. Body is Blonde moments stamp used on sticky back canvass and painted with diluted Claudine Hellmuth paints. Wings and hat are grungeboard. DS not too happy that dungarees are painted pink when I've used his head! LOL!
I've promised to do him one with a blue pair. :-). x
