Art Journal Online - Art Journaling by Artist Letha Richardson

~ Art Supplies used


Art Supplies:


acrylic paint
gesso
masking tape
staz on ink
watercolor crayons


I started off with a background of yellow ocher and burnt sienna acrylic paint, then a light coat of gesso over the top.
I added the masking tape in a criss-cross pattern, then I brushed on a light blue acrylic paint.
The funnest part was to stamp some masking tape with StazOn inks and then cut it up in little strips to make flower petals.
Stamped some flowers with my StazOn pads.
Then I broke out my watercolor crayons.
I colored all the flowers, wrote the word "bloom" and colored in the bee.
Bloom is one of those words that is going to help me to "Shine" this year, I am starting small with a little blooming. :)
