If you don't have wings, choose another way to FLY! - Art Journal

Good afternoon! I hope you all had a fantastic Easter weekend. I finally got to create something in my new studio. It's just an art journal page but I wanted to share some sneak peeks. Since it is my journal I won't be sharing most of what is in it as it is personal. However I want to share some highlights.



I began journaling through art with an Art Journal (Journal52) Group on Facebook. This is week #1 - Up, up and away Challenge

This page spread says "If you don't have wings, choose another way to FLY!"

I hope your day is fun and full of creativity.

Result of the Bloom Girls Online Workshop

I would like to introduce one of my new pieces of mixed media art. These are inspired by the Bloom Girl series from Jamie Lynn Dougherty (jaylynnscraps) who taught the class I have been taking online this month.

She teaches you basic human drawing skills and has through step by step videos to watch either live or if you cant make the live streaming class then you can watch the uploaded video.

This is my version of the class project in the next few days (one posted Saturday and one next Monday) I will be posting a couple more of these beauties. (To see the Second Bloom Girl click here)

Of course the mixed media flowers and embellishments would not be secure without the use of my Handy Dandy Helmar 450 Quick Dry! Liquid Scrap Dots worked great to angle the barrette away from the wooden board it's painted on.  It's the only thing I trust to use on something like this.
