Dear friends,
I created just another graffiti page last night. This time, a happier, more colorful take on this intriguing art (graffiti).
Inspiration: Space graffiti wall I saw in town.
The completed journal pages:
I did not use any acrylic paint at all. Yes!. Just some doodling with black Sharpie, colorful ZIG markers and liquid correction pen.
Background colors are from water-soluble crayons (smudged with wet finger), various washi tapes and stamped patterns. Can you see the intricate stamp patterns in gold ink?. Loving that.
This was such a quick page to complete. Needed minimal drying time, which I loved. Another journal spread with too many colors for my own good :). I hope you enjoy it too.
See you soon; XO

Hi Dawn, you have eyes for details :). Will try this game of 'no paints' again sometime. Hugs.
DeleteThe town you live in must be AMAZING!!! Every time you post a pic of your walks it's beautiful. So is this AJ page. Did you know that Bella stamps holds AJ Mondays with challenges? It would be perfect for you since you are the queen of art journal. Here's the link: http://stampingbella.com/blog/

Did you get some acrylic yesterday??. Sending you art angels for company :). I have plenty of choco canvas at home already ... so I'll pass?. Hugs.
Deleteim so fired up too..ehehe...
ReplyDeletei don't mind having these on my walls at home! i can feel the energy emanating thru the page here...great work!
have you tried markers/crayons doodle art with Faiz in mega canvases? ... think they'd make great wall art :). or a series of 4" X 4" little canvases, grouped together seems fun too. You know, mother-son art collaboration. I've read about this in a mixed-media mag :).
DeleteSo vibrant! This spread just makes me smile and want to go grab my journal and play right this moment.
