Art Journaling Craftalong - 2022

@Abbeeroad I love your quote! And I really like the stems and leaves you did.

@geekgirl :heart_eyes: Those colors! I think the black and white were a good call for the flowers. And I really like your stenciling in the background, it added a lot of depth to the piece.

@AIMR I love the softness and dreaminess of your colors, you’ve got some really great blending in your background. And the white splatters really tied it all together.

Nice colours on yours too!

Those little creatures are so cute!

I added a bit more black and white to my piece. Not sure there is that much of a difference, but I like it better.

This was a lesson from Alisa Burke’s nature journal class.

I watched a handful of lessons and jumped straight to this lesson as it really appealed to me

I think she must have done this in another class as I vaguely remember doing something like this before. It was fun and messy.

You find the best quotes!
This is another pretty piece :heart:

So my wheel of craft interest has turned back around to art journaling, and I may or may not have read this entire thread and done a couple of the videos in the last few days…


And one that wasn’t from a prompt:

If nothing else, now I know about watercolor crayons - they might be my new favorite art supply.

Welcome to the dark side! Where we enable each other to buy more art supplies! :rofl:

I recognize the videos for the first 2. the first pic - love the colors! looks great.
pic 2 - so much texture going on.
And the neutral colors in the 3rd.

I like your date stamp. I’m pretty sure I have one somewhere. I should use it.

I know this is a holiday weekend in the US but is anyone interested in art journaling?
I could do Saturday afternoon, Sunday afternoon/evening or Monday afternoon.
