Self-acceptance

During the execution of a project we face difficulties during the process. Staying paralyzed in the face of problems does not solve. We have to face our difficulties, our limits and take a step forward. It's all part of the process of self-acceptance.

We"re all going to have peace

This page aims to meet a challenge proposed by Chris in the Blog Art Journal Journey of Susi and Elizabeth.

Peace, peace, peace. This is what we all want.

I used tape to do image transfer and include in the book that I am modifying.
The color blue is one of the most I like. Then I caught the blue of the sky and the sea.

My second page for the Words to live by challenge. In this page I used 9 layers: declaration of intention, collage of dictionary papers and phone book, acrylic, stencil, acrylic, stencil washi tape tape, doodles with black and white posca pen and kraft paper and hand embroidery.
I worked a few days, waiting for the layers to dry naturally. I ended up using the word explore because this was the purpose: to explore layers from my art journal.

Background 01/2019

I love mixing colors to create a background
especially the blend of blue, yellow, pink, black and red. I never know what's going to happen.

I used acrylic paint on the pages of the book, drew it with a gel pen, and glued an illustration. The latter painted with a brush pen.

Drops

I use the pages of an old book as a basis for developing my creative process. I started by gluing on a paper printed on gelatin, adding black plaster over the pages of the book and brushing drops of red, yellow, green and orange acrylic paint. I also changed the image with koi blush pen deep yellow.
