A Peek Inside My Art Journal

Hello Beautiful People,

Spent a little time in the Studio today playing in my Art Journal as part of my daily creative practice. This is my Golden Buddha page:


I used Lumiere paint, gloss gel medium, a heat gun, ink jet image scan and PearlEx powder to create the page.

If you'd like to try creating the texture on the page, cover your paonted background and image with gloss gel medium and then use the heat gun very close to the paper until it bubbles up. Be careful not to burn the paper or the medum as both are flammable. Once you have the texture you like, allow it to cool and then apply the PearlE over the top wih a soft brush. Wipe excess PearlEx off with a soft paper towel or rag. Do not re-apply gloss gel medium to seal the piece or the PearlEx glow will be altered.

Hope you've enjoyed this little peek into my Art Journal.

Peace & Blessings,
Karen
