Art Journaling Craftalong - 2022

I slowed down a lot on Junk Journal January, but here are a couple of more-recent pages.

12, quote

24, junk mail (cut from a mailer too big to tip in…)

Why didn’t I fashion/leave room for a hyphen?! :woman_facepalming:t2:. It’s fine. It’s fine.

Thank you! I think I was also unknowingly influenced by the seed pod art journal zoom we did last year.

I will try if I get stuff done on Saturday. She has A LOT of content on YouTube. Sometimes I just listen to her speak - love that British accent!

I’m going to try to make it to this one! I’m finding that working to videos isn’t super my thing, but since this one is basically a free-for-all I might be okay :laughing: .

I think I can be there; keeping going on one page for an hour, no matter what, sounds like a fun challenge! And the accountability to keep going will be helpful.

If you really don’t want to lose something you do early on in the process, lightly stick a cutout piece of plastic or masking tape over what it is you like, so you can take it off after other layers have built up. But wait until the surface is really dry before putting down or peeling off a mask! If your tape is really sticky, put it on your shirt and pick up some lint before putting it on the paper, to cut the likelihood of it taking too much art away with it later.

Okay, I think I can do this one, doesn’t look too difficult. Now to get the courage to actually do it with others.

Masking is a clever idea!

I previewed the video quick and am really looking forward to this one! It looks really fun. I also really like her color palette and am currently trying to restrain myself from buying more paint :joy:

Today’s art journal page for week 4 of Wanderlust. I used a piece of masterboard from @megwell for the birdhouse. It feels a bit incomplete so I might keep adding to it.

The texture, the fantastic use of white space, the spot of red. It’s lovely.
