Abstract marks on packaging paper
The easiest and least expensive way to make an art journal is by using packaging paper you have around the house. You’ve seen already my mini packaging paper journal I posted on the blog last year. I still have plenty of pages to fill in and so many ideas! Cel mai usor si economic mod de crea un art jurnal este folosind hartie de impachetat pe care probabil o aveti prin casa. Ati vazut deja mini-jurnalul facut in hartie de impachetat pe care l-am postat anul trecut. Inca mai am multe pagini care asteapta sa fie pictate si atat de multe idei! One of the things I like to try when I’m…

Soft pastels portrait on packaging paper art journal
Remember my brown packaging paper art journal? It’s time to draw again and fill in the pages! It’s been a while since I haven’t used my soft pastels, and today I grab them and drew this face: Va mai amintiti de jurnalul din hartie de imapchetat? E timpul sa desenez iar ceva in el!

M-am inspirat dupa o poza veche…

I’m working again in the wrapped paper journal and I’m taking advantage of the brown paper to paint portraits. It helps a lot with shading and skin tones are faster resembled when the background is of this beige, tan color. Sa desenezi fete de bebelus poate fi complesitor, mai ales daca trebuie sa desenezi dupa un model in miscare. Dar lucrul dupa o poza este mult mai usor si-i o practica perfecta. Desenez iar in jurnalul facut din hartie de impachetat si profit…

Watercolor Woman Portrait on wrapping paper
One of these days, when the sun seemed to warm the earth even more beautiful than he does in the spring, I went for a walk in the park. I took with me my art journal made from wrapping paper that I wrote about in here. I said to myself to take advantage of this wonderful day and draw directly in nature. But I didn’t drew leaves and other natural Autumnal wonders, but a portrait that I may say it came out pretty good. Intr-una din zilele trecute, cand soarele incalzea pamantul parca mai frumos decat primavara, am iesit la o plimbare in parc. Am luat cu mine si jurnalul meu facut…
