I think that is might be time for some easy and relaxing art, because I am guessing that you might be a bit busy at the moment and might need to unwind! So I have been saving this paint and ballpoint pen doodle for just this occasion. You might remember the last mini abstract? It was the abstract face exercise from a…
I am back in my DIY journal this week with another page and jumping off where I left off last time. It is really fun working in a varied page DIY journal like this because it is challenging to make new art that is both different from the last, but also works with that original art that is peeking through. So what…
I have some fun backgrounds in my art video today for you to try in your next art session. They look like watercolor backgrounds but they are all done with acrylic paints. But why do them with acrylic paint instead of watercolors? Well, you can of course do them with your watercolors but if you like to layer your pieces, like I…

When was the last time that you were painting on fabric? I think for me it must have been a while ago. The closest was when I made that and then I used stamps so no painting on fabric was involved! But I did have this piece of denim left over after that session and I had already treated it with…
Get your sunglasses out! This is a little on the bright side! I've gone fluorescent for a change and I've used up those paper masks from last week's Sunday art video. Now I wanted to do something different with this page so going bright against those paper masks seemed like a great way to change it all up! But fluorescent colors…
