mixed media journal spread, #artjournaleveryday
my friend lyn told me this story and it
has stuck with me as sage advice.
one dayas lynn debated and deliberated
about what to do for the next step on the
piece of art. her teacher said,
just stick it down and be done with it.
we laughed. but every time since if find
myself in a struggle, i remember this.
i know that there are no real mistakes
in mixed media art. there is always another layer
and very often it leads down an
unintended and exciting path.
what has your experience been
when you are stumped?
That is good advice. Also, there's "moving on ..." ;o)
ReplyDeleteWonderful art philosophy and advice! I have many journal pages that have gone nowhere and sit half done... I often return to complete them...

Thanks so much for this detailed information, Irene!
ReplyDeleteI thought I wouldn't need that, thought I should have enough to experiment with, but I think I was wrong :)
And your journal spread is great!!
The brown tones are so warm in this piece. They give prominence to the windowed part. Very nice indeed!
