Hi and welcome to a new 'Hear My Voice' themed Mixed Media Challenge.
If you're not familiar with the 'Hear My Voice' Brand it's a monthly collaboration by Rachel Jefferies and Lynn Grieveson Designs.
Each month rich textures and unique digital artistry are created from a mixture of mediums to provide you with the right tools for expressing your thoughts and feelings through art journaling or mixed media scrapbooking.
This is a monthly space for collectors of Hear My Voice Digital Art to scrap their stash and get creative together. First congratulations to the random winner of the August HMV collection @nemi!
The new Hear my voice August collection will release on August 16th.
In this month’s challenge we will explore the theme of “Embracing”.
For this mixed media art journaling challenge, explore the theme of embracing. You can interpret this theme in different ways: literally, metaphorically or abstractly. Here are some ideas to get you started:
•Literal: Capture a physical embrace between two people, conveying the warmth and connection of the moment
•Metaphorical: Illustrate the concept of embracing change, showing the journey of acceptance and growth
•Abstract: Create an abstract piece that symbolizes the beauty of embracing nature
For this challenge create a mixed media page that represents the theme of “embracing”. It can be a visual page, with journaling if you wish and with or without a photo.
You can, but you don’t have to explain your “Embracing”, you can just make it visual if you prefer not to journal and just let your page speak for itself.
Suggestion for materials:
*Use soft, warm colors, fabric, lace or soft materials to evoke the feeling of warmth (literal embrace)
*Use dynamic colors, scatters, splatters and bold strokes to show movement, use different textures to represent transition and growth (embracing change)
*Use natural elements like leaves, flowers and butterflies or earthy tones and organic shapes to connect with nature
My page is about embracing my grey hairs and the natural progression of life. Aging is a journey full of transformations and rather than hiding them, I’m working to embrace these changes with positivity and acceptance.
For my page I used Rachel’s and Lynn’s Hear my voice collection - 15 Embracing.
Other examples,
