Jan. 18: Art Journal (Style Challenge)

[Frumpje]

It's like white paint that adds texture to a page. It's not a dumb question!! Not everyone know what it is...

I was looking too for what 'gesso' is...

Great challenge Lili. Just up my alley. The pages here are absolutely amazing. Seems so odd to me that so many have expressed anxiety over expressing themselves with images but have no problem rockin along with journaling. I'm just the Opposite!

Journalling drives me nuts!! I am such a visual person..

If you're stuck I suggest you look at Little Butterfly Wings shop. She does great kits suitable for Art Journalling...lots of paint, doodles etc.

okay, first time ever I tried art journal... not sure about it, need more practise, but liked to use paintbrushes I never did before... now to look for a brushviewer ;-).

- the gallery doesn't like rectangles, me thinks. full explanation of the 2 parts in description. thanks for the challenge LiLi - it definitely gets less daunting every MOC

Geez. This actually looks like it will be a lot of fun to create but I have no idea what I'm going to do. I'll have to give this one some thought today. Great pages so far - thanks for the inspiration!

I would take > 250 words journaling over artsy, free and creative splatters anyday.
Can you tell that I am left brained?
Just as well there are challenges for us all.
I can't wait to see if there is a double layout still coming.
Am sure that will cause some stress in others.

Have to admit not my favorite style but I went outside my comfort to try

 

[JentheRN]

You can do it.. just dump the required parts on and confuse it and you got Art Journal

I'm not an art journaler and what you said is basically exactly what I did. I went through all my kits and added anything I could remotely use, then played with opacity and clipped things to other things and removed what I didn't care for... Then drew a little heart myself because I actually own 0 doodles as it turns out.

I'm the least artsy person I know. If I can do it (and actually like the result), I promise anyone can.
