I have been playing along with Connie Hozvicka's Art Journal Wisdom class. Its a free course for nine days. You can join in here
I started this page with lots of oranges, yellows and reds. Then I did some journaling on a separate page and tore it up and glued it down with gel medium. More paint was added on top.
I first saw the lady on the right and then the other two ladies showed up. While yesterdays work was about contrast todays has very little contrast. If I painted around the ladies in a darker color they would definitely pop more.
Here I am playing with circles and pastels, both soft and oil. Its a fun way to play with color. Soft pastel is in the background and oil pastel in the circles. I was using a really cheap oil pastel and you can really tell. The artist quality ones are so much better.
I am giving away another spot in 21Secrets Fall. I am picking a winner on Saturday night. Go to this post and leave a comment to be considered for the drawing. To sign up for the course just click on the link in my sidebar.
