Seasons of Change - Junk Journal Art

 


Check out my previous video for Second Saturday Art! 

This mixed media art journal page is all about fall and the seasons of change. Using recycled paper and various painting techniques.

I bought out my neo colors to add color to the page and applied it loosely

I'm creating an autumn scene in my junk journal and some fun journaling techniques. There are a few artists in the blog hop each month and we take one of the prompts and use it as inspiration for our art that we share.

We will be back for another video for November which will be released on Saturday 8th Nov.  Come and check out The Gathering art journal page. at 11.30 am Saturday.



Would love to know what you are creating in your Art Journal - leave a comment
