Welcome to this week’s art journal page.
This week’s page is one of my favourite because it was so easy to do and I loved the blended colours.
1. I grabbed 3 Pan Pastels to create my background. I used a colour on 1/3rd of the page each and made sure each blended into the other.
2. I then used a Crafters Workshop stencil and a black Pilot pen to create an outline design. Make sure you use a permanent pen as watercolours are used later on.
3. I then coloured in the flowers and vines with blue and green watercolours. I also used black and brown watercolours around the edge of the stencil shape. I diluted them down quite a bit so only a dirty wash of each was left behind. I used a water brush pen to apply the watercolour paints and blend the colour in. It also blended nicely into the Pan Pastels.
5. I then added a quote in the top right and word in the bottom left. (probably could have done without that word).
Completed page!
