The Journey continues...

I'm still catching up with the weekly Art Journey prompts over at UKS. Well, I say catching up but I'm not really... cos it's taking me over a week to get a page done so I'm actually falling further behind on the weekly prompts, rather than catching up! :lol:

But nonetheless, I am being obsessively pedantic about wanting to complete the prompts in their proper order and not skip ahead etc so I am ploughing onwards. :) I'm actually really enjoying the process and the pages I am creating and am looking forward to having a journal full of amazing pages by the time this journey is finished.

So the latest page I have completed is for the Week 6 prompt which was all about building up layers to form your background:

I followed Vicki's tutorial fairly closely on this one and used Eco Green paints, Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Drawing Ink, Derwent Inktense pencils, Tim Holtz tissue tape and white tissue paper to build up my background. The figure is from Tumblefish Studios.

UKS Art Journey - Week 4

I'm a bit behind on the prompts on the UKS Art Journey project but am determinedly working to catch-up.

This was my page for the week 4 prompt which was all about journalling, with researching involving clipping interesting words from magazines/printed material etc.

I kept this one fairly simple. I wiped Dylusions paints onto the page with a baby wipe and splatted with Dylusions inks to form the background and then doodled a border. I added wording clipped from magazines etc and a figure from a Tumblefish Studios download and then added journalling and doodling to finish.
