Art Journaling 101
Paint & collage
This isn't where my thought process started as we are staying in Cornwall at the moment & I have just bought a few arty bits with me - I thought I would do a page on why I love Cornwall so much - I was thinking of a mood board of sand, sea lovely sea colours but when i started looking through the magazines I had bought to cut up there were some lovely sky photos & I thought the colours beautiful - I painted the background & cut the sky pages into clouds & then thought of the words that meant a lot to me as I'm always planning & dreaming big & my husband always thinks of many reasons why we shouldn't do something!!

Woah! Gilly, if this is what you can do with just a few products then I'm amazed. Love this.

Thank you Caylee - 1 small basket which is so not normally me! I'm loving the fact that my journal pages can go in any direction I choose & is totally mine....thank you for the course I love the fact I can keep popping in & out of the lessons & every time I re read them I'm picking up on something new.....

This is so beautiful! I really love the cut out words and all the layers you have. They blend perfectly together.
Thanks Lauren, I didn't know where it was going when I started as I was just trying a few background techniques that had been suggested in the lessons. We are away at the moment so I have plenty of time to play around! My husband is giving plenty of odd looks as I'm cutting up magazines...hehe!!

I love the ransom letters look! This look so fun to put together! Hope you are enjoying your trip :)
Thanks Jessica - so new to all this but using magazines is great when you have very little stash with you!
Which part of Sydney are you in - we've been a couple of times & it's just stunning.
Yeah, a magazine sure does work well when you have very little with you since you can get so much from them. I looked through a few the other day just for an image, and found so much I want to use @Pegs! Also, I'm not right in the City or anything, just on the Western outskirts of Sydney. I love going into the City for things though, they have some great light shows and events, and I've done a few photography classes in there also.
