This is better!
It all started by glueing down bits of under paper that had lovely colours. Gradually it sort of evolved, more paint, gelatos, pen and voila! One strange looking page! But I love it!

You can’t win them all!
What can I say about this? Maybe I will end up just covering the whole thing with gesso and do something different! Lots of different dylusions sprays and stencils. One thing that I did discover was that by drawing inside a stencil with big brush markers and then smudging I could make some cool circles – I love circles!!
Journal 52 – Wk12 – Emulate
The idea was to emulate an artist you love. Mine is Hundertwasser – an amazing and crazy person! His colours are awesome. This page was created with markers, paint, and inktense blocks.
Mixed Media Morsels 2 – Collage
Pretty much as it says although I used magazine pages rather than painted pages. Quite like the result…..
Mixed Media Morsels 1 – Cling film
Finally have begun Cat Hands series of MMM’s. Must admit my first 2 attemps with the clingfilm were pretty much a disaster. The clingfilm stuck to the paint and I couldn’t seperate the film from the paper and ended up ripping the background off. Finally had another go with different clingfilm and thinner paint and yeh! it worked!
Spot the mistake where I picked up the flower punch instead of the corner punch!
Fun on Good Friday…….
More shapes torn from the Unwasted Paint Composition Book! Just got this superb Dina Wakely tourquoise paint so I just had to use it and the rest of the page evolved around it – I love circles!
The Eyes Have it!
Bits cut from my ‘Unwasted Paint Composition Book’ – an idea from Cat Hand to use up leftover paint. Shapes were cut from the page (the 2 at the top and 3 at the bottom) and glued on and the page sort of developed from there – goodness knows where the eyes came from!
Mission Inspiration March
Finally got March Mission done! Was fun to do, not so sure about the gold but it’s sort of traditional around the Buddha I think.
Oh dear!
Really, really not sure about this one. I found some gorgeous dark blue napkins with lovely geraniums and thought they would make a lovely page. Hmm, not me I’m thinking! Maybe the last minute white paint splatters helped a bit! Just all seemed a bit dark.
Not sure about this!
These flowers have been all sorts of colours! I just couldn’t seem to get it right but it’s done. Another Mimi Bondi inspired tutorial.
