Love the black halos!
I kept trying to watch the France Pappillon guided journaling videos but I’d latch on to a little detail that would spark a different idea, leading to starting a different page or project! So I have various things in progress, and one completed page that only used a couple ideas from the start of one of them, before it became its own thing.
My first time using the Signo white gel pen! So wonderfully easy!
The base is a bunch of photos glued onto book pages. The idea of masking off just a little piece of it, and deciding which piece that should be, is how it came to be a spread about root beer.

Anyone interested in art journaling on Saturday morning? 10am Eastern time?
I want to do this video. its mostly about shading which is something I’d like to work on.
supplies needed:
gesso
acrylic paint
white charcoal pencil (could probably make do with any white pencil or pen or even a fine paint brush and white paint
plastic wrap (saran wrap, cling film)
paint brushes
paper towel
heat gun or hair dryer
makeup brush or a soft clean dry paint brush
she does a similar one with black charcoal but the first video shoes more of the plastic wrap technique so you could choose white or black

That looks super cool! I feel really behind on regular life stuff, so I’ll be doing that this weekend instead, but I can’t wait to see what you guys make!

That is really beautiful. We have almost hit out data cap, but I can’t wait to see what you all make!
Oh, wow! That’s a beautiful page! Sadly, I can’t even think about anything but school right now. But, I can’t wait to see how you all interpret it!
I agree, that page is stunning! I am interested, but since I’m behind I have to say no. I can’t wait to see what everyone makes!
I am!!!
I’ve sent the zoom info to @photojenn, @jemimah, and @AIMR for a session of following along with this video tomorrow morning. if anyone else wants to join in, let me know.

It was great to see you ladies this morning! I really like the techniques from the video, will definitely need to try it again. Here’s my page
Here’s the silicone mat I was using. I have a white one but I don’t see it listed now.

It looks fab! I love the depth and dimension, and your shading turned out great!

I like how your white turned out. I struggled with mine and covered most of it with color.
Then I did another piece without as many layers
The video makes it look so easy but it’s definitely something that takes practice. I did enjoy the process though

I LOVE the translucent effects. I guess I underestimated the power of a makeup brush; the smoothness is so nice. I’m not using mine anyway, I may as well repurpose it for painting!
These are all so beautiful.
