Another bit of double spread journaling in my 21 x 13 cm Moleskine journal . This time entitled 'Flying'. The background was made using spray inks, acrylic paints with masks over a pre-gessoed page. The page is pictured at the end of the post prior to having any decoration added.
The flying girls are collaged and are a digital download from the lovely Helga at ARTchix Studio . These have been trimmed out and stuck in place. I just love the butterfly winged dress and hat on the girl on the right !
Lots of doodling with Posca pen in red, gold, black and yellow and stamping with Archival black & green inks with a leafy vine stamp helped hold the design together.
Finally the words were printed on paper with a pink background, trimmed out and finished with more Posca pen before sticking in place.
I do find it difficult to know when to stop adding things and am still finding out what I really feel comfortable with as my 'style'. I am really loving doing these though and have lots of ideas which I still want to try.

ReplyDeleteWell I think you're doing a great job with these journal pages. I personally think on a journal page more is more as they are meant to look busy. It's only my opinion as I don't even do journal pages!!
ReplyDeleteAnyway wait until you get started with Pan Pastels on them too Sid - lol
