I feel like the blog and the workshops are really inspiring me as an artist. I’m exploring media and really finding joy in the process and in the products. I particularly like this homage to V. Kandinski’s 13 rectangles. Mine was made with different kinds of tape with a base of tissue paper and Mod Podge that I actually did during the workshop on Saturday. The facing page is another experiment in artistic journaling that allowed the illustration of the book remain intact.
I love how the washable markers spread on the pattern paper in this collage. I really like the Simplicity papers for so many reasons and my experiment of using it as tracing paper worked out even better than I had hoped.
The picture below shows just how flexible duck tape can be. One of my students gave me the leopard sheet of adhesive and it inspired this stencil safari. Note to self: The tape is a lot harder to cut than the sheets.
Looks like a wonderful collage of pictures and words. Must really be a great inspiration!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I look forward to seeing what we both come up with next. Blogging and art are such an exciting combination!
I have a half finished art journal with so many textures in it. I look at the work of others and think “I want to do that too” but mine never seems to look like anyone else. lol. I like your work.
I love to explore color and texture. I love looking at others’ work too. I enjoy this online community I have been discovering and finding other artists, such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, who really shared their life experience through their art. I look forward to checking out your blog, too. Thanks for your kind works.
