Not a Mess Art Journal Page

 

I recently saw a cool page on Facebook by Theresa Hall aka To Far Away Places. It spoke to me and I just had to make it my own.

My Process:

1. Used Liquitex Matte Medium for adhesive, layered bits of card stock and papers down the two long sides of my page.

2. Collaged a strip of graph paper down the middle where the quote was to go.

3. Adhered some stenciled feather cut outs in various places.

4. Painted white gesso in a variety of areas and rubbed it off to show what's underneath.

5. Used daubers with three colors of acrylics to blend in the color on the textured surface of the page.    >>Let dry.

6. Copy quote down the middle of the page using Micron 01 pen.

I enjoyed the challenge of this piece in my Art Journal. It's quote is perfect for most artist and crafters!
