Art Every Day Month - Day 10

I've had a wonderful weekend spending time with other creatives and adding to my mermaid themed art journal. This piece is the inside cover of my large fish journal which opens up to reveal even more pages inside and features a torn edge on the right hand side. It's a very clever way of cutting and piecing together one A1 sized piece of art paper into a 20 page journal - thank you Paula Perich for showing me how to do this!   

I've used my neon coloured Prismacolor pencils to add shadow and light on my mermaid and journaled a quote from Margot Datz about the origin of woman.

Thank you again for calling in, have a creative day xx

Art Every Day #07

By now I am thinking I'm not going to be able to keep up with a post every day, but I will plod along as best I can with the challenge. I'm going to be spending the next couple of days at an art journaling class so I'm hoping I will be getting some catch up time in :) 

Until then, I received a box full of goodies this morning including some wonderful new stamps from Deep Red Rubber Stamps which are just wonderful for collage. Who could resist right? Here is the result of some collage play today.

Thanks for calling in, hope to see you again!

A Death Defying Triple Act - Art Every Day #06

Day #06 already, and today I am sharing a folded page in one of my art journals - the mermaid circus - which is totally inspired by a recent e-course I have been taking by Jane Davenport and Teesha Moore. I've really learnt so much from both of these ladies and my love for art journaling has grown tenfold since beginning the class. I hope to be working more on this journal over the coming weeks so I will be sharing more.

I've collaged the leaping frogs and given them some painted stripy bathers for a bit of fun having arranged them in the middle of a leap frog diving act. Just a bit of fun.

Thanks for dropping by, see you in blogland.

Art Journal Every Day Month #02

Here is my day #02 for Art Journal Every Day Month. I cheated a little and I'm using an art journal page I created a couple of weeks ago to try to catch up. This piece is collaged using brightly coloured serviettes and overpainted with acrylic paint, paint markers, pens, stencils and Prismacolor pencils. It forms the cover to one of the current art journals I am working on at the moment - of which there are many! This journal will feature sea creatures, mermaids and characters from beneath the sea.

Thanks for visiting me :)
