​Hi all, today I am sharing a recent art journal with me mixed media and collage video from a Facebook Live from my art and journaling group: Kerrymay Makes A Mess 

The video shows you step by step how I created a zetti art style collage in a Teesha Moore style.

If you want to journal along with me or have a go at a later time you will need some of the resources that I used:

Acrylic paints, an old credit card style card, gold paints, a magazine with models in it and interesting bits of papers with unusual bright patterns plus scissors and glue. A chalk or paint pen would also be ideal for the lettering and a black pen for outlining. ​ I used a Uni-pin pen, but a biro will work too.

With most of the World in lockdown, quarantine and isolation, I thought it would be a good time to collate a list of links, ideas and resources to keep you busy, creative and to occupy your minds during this period of 'downtime'.

​I will be covering free art classes, Facebook groups that promote creative journaling, the best of You Tube tutorials, ideas for children, hand lettering freebies and the best free resources and entertainment from my blog and online.

​​Hi all, well what a week! I hope that you are all staying safe. I am thinking of each and every one of you xx

Today I am creating vintage collage sheets using a variety of ephemera, die cuts and papers. These can then be used as master boards that you can scan and print and reprint as you wish. You could also edit them in image software to make them black and white or sepia toned. They make great happy mail to send out or to use in Junk Journals, creative journaling and art journals.

These were created for a challenge over in my Facebook Art Journaling Group

I hope that the video inspires you to create your own. 

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.

​100 Art Journal Prompts and Journaling Ideas to inspire your creativity in your art journals, journaling and creative journals and to help pass time whilst in isolation and lockdown.

​Use them however you like, literally; for art, painting, watercolour, mixed media, journal prompts or photographs for memory keeping.

I often find myself getting out the watercolours and being totally stuck for inspiration. I hope these words help to spark your inner creativity and muse.
