Live Out Loud


Day three of the NaNoJouMo Challenge. I would have posted this sooner, but my computer seems to be fighting me on these scan then post activities. But I persevered. I just have to stop procrastinating on working on the page so late into the night.
This page was inspired by watching the Teesha Moore videos on how she journals, which she's got posted to her blog and over on YouTube. I am learning quite a lot about integrating collage elements to make the page more cohesive (something I've avoided in the past.). I like this experimenting. I have a couple of new books on journaling that I could use to try different techniques this month during the challenge. Sounds like a plan of action to me.

Collage personas



One of the first attempts I made at creating an art journal page is above. I took bits and pieces from magazines, papers, and water color for the background to create a 'person'. This is still one of my favorite collage projects and I continue to make these collage personas. Below is another example from a more recent art journal. Try it for yourself and post it to your blog and leave me a link so I can see. Or share ones you've already done.
