New obsession ART JOURNALING! And I already have a favorite YouTube channel that specializes in art journaling, Vicky Papaioannou. All her creations are amazing and I can’t seem to get enough. Of course I ran out to the store and bought an art journal, now I didn’t buy the one she uses and I don’t have all the right supplies just yet, but I’m working on it. I wanted to make sure this was something I was interested in before spending too much money.
I created two pages on my own and as fun as it was to create freestyle I found that while I’m still getting the hang of this new technique I would prefer a little more direction in my creations and this is where Vicky came in. I think she is just wonderful. She also has a blog called Clips-n-Cuts you should definitely check her out. Another really cool thing Vicky does is she takes the time to include all of her supplies featured in the video and adds them to the description with links on where you can buy it.
For the page below I simply followed her video “Art journal: The sky is the limit” step by step pausing in-between. I don’t own gelatos or the same markers, gesso, and stamps she uses but I tried to work with what I do own. This page uses several mediums and since I’m still learning, these video tutorials are a great help. For the air-balloon stamp I simply sketched and cut out. Thinking about it now I could have found an image online, printed and cut but I actually like the handmade shape of them. Anyways I hope your guys picked up some new ideas and are interested in following me on my art journal journey.
Send me a comment or link to some of your favorite art journal youtube channels or any links to art journal pages you have created. I would love to check them out, thanks!
