Colour--UKS ART Journal

Hurray!! I finished my first page, and here it is.  The colours are a bit dark but its done.
I painted the page with gesso then painted acrylic Lemon Yellow, Scarlet Red & Titanium White.  Drew the path which I had already covered with newspaper before painting. Then gesso again on path.Sprayed Procion Dye Turquoise through Tim Holtz Ransom Mask( letters)  Stamped the edge in black with do-crafts stamp and the woman is a  stamp I made from fun foam from a tracing.  Other stamps from Scrollworks.
Outlined all with a black Sharpie pen.  Thanks for looking.

  2. Kay your page is STUNNING - You are a natural girl. No baby steps for you! I'm loving the techniques you have used and I LOVE that lady stamp!
    Welcome to the wonderful world of Art Journaling - I'm sure you are going to enjoy the ride - you are a natural artist!
    Ahhh and I see in your profile you're a messy crafter - I keep telling my hubby that's just the sign of an artist hard in creativity!
    So looking forward to seeing more pages from you.
