I think that words must influence me quite a lot, especially when I am am about to settle down for an afternoon in my craft room. Today my word of choice is.... art......
In this craft space I can give myself the freedom to try new things,
many experiments don't work, but its good to try.
I cannot draw freehand, but I love stamps and computer generated images.
Colour is also high on my list of priorities. to use in my journals, as is getting messy
and having paint everywhere
What is she rambling on about you might ask...
think for a moment...... these are all....... words..
So without realising it words were involved in the creating of my page, in a number of ways.
In my thinking, out loud, on some of the stamps I used,
as well as my notes as I write this blog post

The background is stencils , oxide inks and . a selection of stamped images with the words included.
The washi tape colours cheered me up as it is so frosty outside my window today.

This is beautiful, Yvonne. You sound a lot like me, except I don't stamp very well. I don't think I've ever stamped anything that turned out perfect. Fair, maybe, but not correct. However, you and I are both color driven, and we both love images. You created a beautiful second entry for the month and I love it. The colors are perfect, the composition is great, and it says everything you wanted to say. Thanks for sharing this and showing another great example of your theme for Art Journal Journey.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you about experimenting in my craft room. Your latest piece shows some super results. And it also made me think about how I can also make a mess in my craft room, unlike the rest of my house. Smile. That is a super quote! Hugs-Erika
