Art Journal Prompt: Dear Me
Instructions:
Write yourself a letter today and remind yourself about all the good things in your life. You can do it directly on the page, hidden behind a flap or tucked into a pocket.
Example Page:
How this example was done:
|
First step – Scrollwork. I painted the scrollwork in with a rigger or liner brush and a small flat brush. Then I used acrylic ink to go the greener line around the edge of the page and the rigger to do lines over and around it.
|
| Second step – Shading. I used some pale yellow watercolor to add color to the page. It comes out more beige or buff color than yellow.
|
| Third step – Letter to me. I used blue liquid ink pen to write to myself about the good things in life.
|
Supplies used today:
- masking tape
- dip pen nibs
- acrylic ink
- pilot liquid ink pen
- artists' watercolor field box set
- liquid acrylic paint
- gesso
A Word from Tee:
Super simple page today! Still no word from my Sister about my grand-niece. She’s in surgery for her transplant.
Scratch that… Just got word: She’s out of surgery and the Doc said the lungs were a perfect fit!
WHOOOO HOOOOO about your Great Niece. That is a blessing for sure.
