Been way too long ....

These got mis placed here... These are pages I've worked on from the DLP Project

Hello all ... I've been gone from here for a very long time , but I have been busy doing all kinds of fun stuff. 

At Christmas I made my very first video of a flip through from a December Daily Junk Journal I made.  

Here is the link if anyone would want to take a peek:

After Christmas I got the bug to organize my studio a bit and start dabbling in done painting / doodling again. 

Here are a few things I played around with : Some watercolor illustrations

Doing a painted paper using acrylic paints , to use for collage , etc

Watercolor

Making some pages for my Documented Life Project: 2016 The Unplanner 

Here is a link if you would like to sign up.

It's keeping me in the creative frame of mind while setting up my own planner....

I was also re covering my Bible, ... I redid the cover on a composition book for my new journal and redid the cover on a doodle tablet.  A black paper one I doodle with white gel pen in it. 

I also made some splashy papers for collage or to use in my DLP Project ... I will need to put a very thin coat of clear gesso or matte medium in them since it is watercolor , 

I even played around with my Paper 53 app  and my pencil ( stylus)

And ........ A FREE GIFT FOR YOU 

I used watercolor and created a " TO DO " List. 

All you need to do is right click and save to your computer and print it out whatever size you want. 

Well , that's it for now ... Please leave me a comment let me know what you think .... Always love a little feedback. 

Hugs,

Robin

Two new Art Journal pages and having fun with paper and fabric art ....

I"m seeing a bird thing happening...lol ...I LOVE birds anyways...I love to draw them and have them in my doodles/art.....
My second one was done using wax paper and acrylic paint to print the leaves....I painted the leaves on the wax paper then etched the veins with the end of my paint brush...gives them a nice textured look.

I love working with fabric of course, so I thought I would try this...Sewing fabric and paper to create a collage....

The middle of this is a design of mine that i printed off and cut into pieces. I chose this section to use as the base..... I'm going to make a smaller journal full of more pieces like this one...
So, there we have that...I've kept busy...
Have a great night..it's late, so you are probably sleeping and wont see this till morning, in that case....Have a great day !!!

Incorporating my beloved primitive with the whimsical aspect in to my Art Journaling.

I'm trying to incorporate my more primitive/ folk art style in with the whimsical almost abstract that is commonly identified with this wonderful art journaling. 

The term " art journal" is appropriate  for what I'm doing. I'm on my own little art journey , having so much fun and keeping it recorded in my pages. 

Love what you are doing ...
