Mixed Media Art Journal Collage process. I used a gelliplate background for the page and went with a vintage seaside spread. #artjournal #artcollage #vintagecollageart

Mixed Media Collage Process on a Gelli Plate Background

It's been an awfully long time since I created any art at all, especially a mixed media collage. So with that in mind I decided it was time to get out the paints, books and glue and get creating.

I had already created the background using a Gelli Plate so was ready to go straight in to creating a collage. I wanted it to have a slight 'zetti style', but with a more vintage seaside vibe.

Have a look at the creative process in the video below. Don't forget to subscribe to my channel for future videos.

Tiny Tn Micro Art Journal

Tiny art journals and micro journaling has really taken off this year. I have used mine for art journaling and mixed media, with a mix of collage, watercolour and layering. #tinytn #microjournal #microart #tinyartjournal #microart

Tiny art journals and micro journaling has really taken off this year. I got this tiny tn (travelers notebook) from the UKPA Big Meet in January and wasn't sure how to use it. I then saw a lot of people were using theirs for art journaling and mixed media, so of course I had to join in.

I have loved creating collage and watercolour art journal pages in this. It is much simpler than using a large journal as it is much less intimidating. I never struggle with what to put on the page, I just get out my supplies and create. I can whip up a journal page in less than 10 minutes.

Below is a flip through of my fully completed micro tn. I had so much fun using this, that I now have started 2 more!

Watercolour and Brusho Snowdrops Art With Me Mrs Brimbles

It's been a long time since 1, that I have created any watercolour art and 2, that I have done a post for Anna Brim, but yay, I can say that I am happy to be back doing both. I was so inspired by Anna's watercolour snowdrops video tutorial over on her patreon page - patreon.com/mrsbrimbles, that I decided to add my own twist to it using Colourcraft Crystal Colours Brusho as well as watercolour and stamping ink. I still used drawing gum to create a resist for the snowdrops. You can see my full process in the video below.
