Art for Art's Sake

I haven't done any 'real' art journaling for quite a while. By 'real' I mean simply art for art's sake - creating just to create, because sometimes ... LIFE.  But the more you step away the harder it is to step back in, so this week I had a simple play in my junk journal.

And it was fun!

A bit of painting, collage, gel prints, stitching ... And do you see the shimmery dots? Dylusions ink spray. LOVE!


I had a dig through my box of gel prints to create this little montage. I love the monochrome of the insect against the bright colourful prints. And I have a LOT of prints so this is a great way to use them :-)

So now I have stepped back into my art journal, I need to keep going. Bye for now!
