Mixed Media & Art Journaling with Love
First Mixed Media blog in Romania
Sometimes I love to work on loose sheets of paper, like Mixed Media Canson block, the 200 grm (120 lbs) in A5 format 14,8x 21 cm (5.8”x8.3”). This type of paper works pretty good when adding water, and it’s perfect to experience all kind of mixed media techniques. Uneori imi place sa lucrez pe bucati de hartie separata de jurnal, precum cea din blocul Mixed Media Canson ci hartie de 200 gr (120lbs) in format A5 – 14,8×21 cm (5.8”x8.3”).

What to do with the packaging left overs? If you are like me, first thing that comes thru your mind is ‘how can I use that?’ Maybe an art journal out of packaging paper? Yeah, why not? I have this paper from an online order that came last week. What to do with it? I thought a journal will work very well, as I’ve seen this kind of journal sometime when I first started with art journaling, only that I never had the chance to …
Pentru schita de astazi am incercat ceva nou (sau relativ nou): creionul PITT pastel rosu sangvia de la Faber Castell. Daca ati mai desenat in creioane pastel sau batoane in pastel cretat, atunci probabil stiti ca pastelul cretat se intinde foarte usor cu degetele, desi poate fi intins si cu o estompa. Se pot crea astfel degradeuri de culoare pentru a crea umbre si lumini ce dau desenului mai multa profunzime. Am avut drept model o femeie din alta epoca, care
