Flowers more numerous than stars: Art Journal Page

This page is the fourth that I've created for the April prompt over on Nina Ribena's Art Journal Prompts and More: Spring.  It also fits the weekend challenge from Lou Withers over on Junk Journals and Mindful Mixed Media Art: Paint a page black, then create something with the theme of nature.

Wanderlust Week 4: Poem and Hand

These pages were created in response to Kasia's Lesson in Wanderlust 2018 (Lesson 4).  I wasn't too sure when I started these pages how things would turn out.  I watched Kasia's videos twice before I started.  However, when I stopped thinking and planning too much and just added information as it occurred to me, everything came together beautifully and I really enjoyed the process.  I worked in my Moleskine journal which I finally started using for Wanderlust this year.

Step by steps have been removed in line with Wanderlust guidelines.  Here are close ups of the finished pages.

Mission Inspiration: July 2017

I am still busy catching up with the monthly missions from Mission Inspiration.  This page was created in response to the July prompts (my 4th page in 4 days), so I have nearly caught up.  Once again, I happened to drop upon the perfect image in a Sunday supplement magazine which fitted the colour scheme and one of the word prompts.  As usual, there were 8 steps, 3 suggested colours and 5 prompt words.

May Mini Mission: Borders

I decided to take the prompt literally and have fun with borders and as it was for a mini mission, I worked on a tag as usual.

Art Journal Prompts Week 16: Step into Spring

This page is for the 'Art Journal Prompts' Facebook group weekly challenge.  I came up with the concept for the page as I was falling asleep, so it didn't take me long to make.  I wasn't too sure how Brushos would work on a gessoed surface rather than on watercolour card, but as you will see, the background worked out fine.

Journal52 Week 10: Truth

Although I am sharing this page after the next prompt for Journal52 has already been released, I actually completed it on Tuesday; one of three art journal pages in one day.  That is a record for me, but as I work on Thursday and Friday, I prepare some of my blog posts in advance.  I arrived at the quote that I wanted to use quite quickly, but my idea about the page was very nebulous until I found a sheet of 12" x 12" K & Co. paper which had birds on it.  One of them contained the word truth and I went from there.

Journal52 #7: Dawn

As soon as I saw the prompt for this, I immediately had the song from the musical 'Hair' in my head.  It didn't take long to decide what the layout would be.  I tried out my new collection of Aqua Tints for the background; gorgeous colours which go a long way!
