It's Friday again - YEAY!!! And I have another Scrapaganza weekend ahead of me! No particular plans and plenty of time to create! The weather has been beautiful the last few days - nice and cool and sunshiney! If that holds out I hope to go walking with Michael and get some photos to scrap.My creativity tends to go in phases. For awhile, I was doing almost nothing but art journaling and I absolutely loved it! Then, for some reason, I started doing more layouts and other projects and the art journal got put aside. Poor, sad art journal! I'm so sorry to have neglected you! I hope you knew I'd be coming back when the time was right! I did my first layer tonight and here's a pic. I usually start by smooshing some acrylic paint around on the page to make a background. I just grab any colors that inspire me at the moment. I love the look of these two greens together. After this dries I will go on to my next layer. Since it's after 4:00 am, that will probably come tomorrow. (grin)
Do you art journal? I'd love to hear about your process!
It's about bedtime for me, so I will leave you with my latest pic of my late-nite scrappin companions - Willie and Johnny. Aren't they a couple of handsome dudes?
I work on an art journal as well. But, I didn't have much of groove to it. I took my colored pencils and spent most of the time sketching and coloring. Sometimes I'll paint the pages ahead of time, but I like watercolor.
ReplyDeleteI'm starting on a new journal. I'm going with a spiral bound one this time. The one I had before was bound and I found it difficult to work with.
Thanks for sharing what you do.

Love the paint, can't wait to see what you come up with...
ReplyDeleteI have art journaled in the past, but It goes in spurts.
I actually like making mini art journals,
I'll do a few pages within a timeframe and then sew them together or somehow bind them together, and voila,
A very cool mini.
Less pressure, fabulous project.
