Whimsical birds

I have been making whimsical birds in my art journal. These lovely creatures are based on week's 14 lesson from Lifebook 2013. I have been watching all the lessons, but have not been creating all weeks. But this lesson really appealled to me! After the 2 little birdies in my art journal I have created 2 little mixed media paintings on canvas boards ( 13 x 18 cm).

Week 6 Life Book 2013 - Courage

This weeks lesson of Life Book 2013 is COURAGE. I just love dragonflies... and I only recently found out that they are the symbol of change. So I created my courage page with some dragonflies. Courage to change!!


The background is done with Dylusion spray inks. I love the colors in these spray bottles, but yours hands get dirty... and will be for the next few days LOL. The lady is drawn using a vintage poster as example and painted with Neocolors.


I just love how she jumps without any fear!!

Week 3 - Life Book 2013

Yesterday I have been creating 2 pages in my mixed media journal after watching this weeks video lesson with Christy Tomlinson. The flowers are made with aluminium foil and tissue and hand painted deli paper.
