ART JOURNAL Flip Through | 'Inspired by Nature' 🌳🌾

Here's my art journal that I've been working on for almost a year. I started around May, 2022, left it in Summer to create in a smaller version whilst on the road in our vintage Hymer Debussy (you can watch that video here • ART JOURNAL Flip Throu... ) and returned to it when we've returned home in October, 2022. I finished it just before our next journey to Scandinavia in April, 2023. So, in total I worked less than a year on it. When I started working in this journal I decided 'Nature' would be my main theme.
If you'd like to buy me a coffee, please use this link, I'd truly appreciate your support!

This is the large Dina Wakley journal, with watercolour paper, Kraft paper, canvas and burlap included. I simply can't stop working in these books, because they're so wonderfully designed.

Thank you so much for your kind words, I’m happy you like the art journal. I’ve heard it’s very cold where you live, good luck!

[@paulinestewart8188]

Most of the time our winters here in the Vancouver area are fairly mild but during this past week, our city has been buried under a foot of snow. I don't really mind because it's a great excuse to stay home - drink lots of coffee and get out my art/sewing supplies to get my creative juices flowing. That's why I can't wait to get started on some of your great journal page inspirations. @@luzartworks

[@luzartworks]

@@paulinestewart8188wow that sounds like a perfect situation to pick up your creativity!

[@uschita1977]

Wow! I was just asking myself, how can a human being create such beauty? Amazing!... Almost a shame that these great artworks are not being displayed big way somewhere in an exposition, but "hidden" between these journal pages - but it's great that you're sharing them with the world here!

[@luzartworks]

❤️ Your beautiful comment makes me search for the appropriate reply, Uschita, I really don't know how to thank you... but thank you so much! Yes, my partner always says that too, "how could you exhibit or sell these", haha!

Each page of your journal is so rich and detailed. I particularly like the substrate you use for each page. It offers a rich texture. Thanks.

[@luzartworks]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I'm happy you love the book. I use a lot of techniques that provide a layered background. Most of the time just acrylic paint, using a roller/brayer or the palette knife. Sometimes I use paper for that purpose, or paper towels... or whatever I find... The possibilities are endless. Maybe I'll create a video tutorial on how to create backgrounds. :)
