Yes! Same techniques. I’ve been playing with ladies on a small scale since then but trying to go bigger. Maybe someday I can try open eyes… :grimacing:

Thanks for the kind words, guys! :heart:

Love how you shadowed the mountains! Beautiful and serene.

Quick art journal page this evening based on a set of Mike Deakin’s prompts. Well, a partial set; I skipped a few in the middle because I really liked what I had and didn’t want to add what they called for :laughing:.

I tried the same prompt list again last night on a two-page spread.

I like the first version a lot better, but I’m happy to have two more pages covered up in this journal I’m trying to finish.

Totally flaked on the inchie challenge. The Robin Marie Smith Nest Fest starts today - do I have time? I do not. And then there’s this from Alisa Burke’s Instagram:

That’s the thing; it’s such a good deal.

If anyone has taken any of these :arrow_down: classes, do you have thoughts about them? (I realize that’s five not four; I’m mulling options.)

If you’re interested, Julie Fei-Fan Balzer is teaching a free class about making acrylic skins. It starts tomorrow and I think it’s only 2 sessions, the second one is next week (I think.)

But honestly from the 5-minute video on YT, You can probably figure it out. And if you’ve tried paint pouring, you may have looked at the run-off bits and saved them.

Just saw this cool video on YouTube where she makes her own paint dobbers from a bingo dinner kit instead of buying the $20 Posca one. These would be great for gelli printing. I can’t figure out how to link to a timestamp on my phone but she starts putting them together around 8:36
