Well, I have been inspired by so much this past few weeks and my blog has never been so busy in a long time. So many different things have inspired me to join in with Art Journal Journey and Eileen's theme of "Inspired by ..." which has been co-hosted by Erika and Chris because, sadly, Eileen passed before they had chance to run the theme.
Although different things have inspired me as each page has unfurled, I think a big common factor has been that I have been enjoying my pencil crayons. I am no colourist and would love to be able to blend and use my pencils like some people, like Miranda whom I mentioned the other day, but nevertheless I have so enjoyed working with them. Today I am showing you some Mandalas I have just coloured in - with pencils - but this time watercolor ones. And this time I have used a waterbrush to enhance the depth of colour. Not strictly a watercolour technique but again I did enjoy myself.
The stamp is by PaperArtsy and is one bought for me by my bff for my birthday because I needed it for a fan I was making in a workshop. Having only used it for that I decided I had better get more use from it and so I started on this journal page using my Inktense pencils for it.
The background is coloured with Speckled Egg Distress Ink and, as you can see, I kept to the same colours for all the Mandalas. So, here we are, another entry for Art Journal Journey.
