I tried my hand at another journal page this weekend. Now, I was never really that
good of a painter, more 'crafty' painting than anything. And it's been probably
20 years since I've really even done any painting. But to my surprise
most of my paints were still good. I had them stored upside down so the air
had a hard time getting into it.
I love dragonflies and being in the south, during the summer, they are
everywhere. I managed to find a picture of one that
helped me, so I drew one, copied it over to some thicker paper.
I painted it, then cut it out. I applied it to the prep page
with Mod Podge. I tried spraying it with some Glimmer Mist, but that
didn't really show up that well. When I was done with
everything else, I added a bit of Stickles liquid glitter to
add that bit of shimmer on the wings and head.
There are a couple of things that I need to practice a bit
to get better at, but all in all, I'm happy with the page
results.
