Zentangle

The Adventure Quest at Scrapbookgraphics is to do a Zentangle, or Mandala, or the combination of both. I did a Zentangle. I had no idea where I was going with this, I just began with the tree and went from there. I haven't done this since the 70's! LOL I didn't know it was called Zentangle either. Here it is in progress and finished - (I think). I might color it next.

Open Up

This art journal page is a message to me - open up is something I need to do -

The background was covered with squares of paper and cloth, then acrylic paints to give it texture, a little stenciling, the girl was painted and cut out of another paper. The house is by Tangie Baxter .

Be Present

I really like this art journal page. The leaves are made from pieces of a linen cloth I use to blot paint and ink.

All put together -

Here it is all finished - the cover is floppy and I'm not sure I like it that way, but it was a fun project!

Now to wait for the inspiration to work in it.  So many choices - quotes, lists, thoughts, pictures, or maybe I'll give it to someone . . . who knows?

The cover is made of canvas, I really like the way the canvas took the paint. Now to sew in the pages!

The last of the Mixed Media Mayhem pages -

There are a few more of these but this is all I'm going to post.
