Thank you so much 🙏🌹yes definitely be brave and start playing. You will learn so much and don’t get discouraged if your first pages doesn’t turn out the way you want. They rarely do in the beginning when you are learning. I know mine didn’t. 😅be brave, have fun and keep on going ❤️🌹

[@brendaurbanik2162]

Oh this was so wonderful to watch, and what a beautiful art journal page! I love the colours of autumn but we don't really get these kinds of autumns here in South Africa. But I was in Seattle and also in Montana one Autumn and oh my goodness, I can still see all those colours clearly in my mind! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful process with us.

[@JessonArt]

I love the season changes. The autumn colors are magnificent, they has such glow to them. Thank you again for your sweet comments 🌹

[@gatina7713]

Hi Brenda! So glad you've enjoyed a fall season in the states. The smell of fall is always delightful, not sure if you've noticed it. I am from south Florida and we don't get to see the colors but we get a bit of the nice fall smell, leaves falling down.

[@andiemcgregor1222]

Autumn is my favorite season; it feels/looks as though nature is on fire. I loved watching this video not only for inspiration but a few techniques (with the white gesso especially) I've never thought of, it made it all cohesive. Thank you so much for sharing, it's gorgeous. ♥♥

[@JessonArt]

Yes very much indeed. Happy you found inspiration. Thank you so much 🌹

I not only love your style of art journaling, but I love your music too. Just for curiosity's sake, how is the weather right now where you live?

[@JessonArt]

Thank you so much 🤗💗🙏 I live in south of Sweden and we are waiting for spring but it has been a cold week so far. Tomorrow it’s going to rain and be about 5 degrees Celsius but the promised sun for the weekend 🤗

[@awomanforsuchatimeasthis7749]

Wow!! Absolutely beautiful!! It was amazing that the pages could take so much water. What kind of paper is used as the base page??

[@JessonArt]

Thank you so much. It’s a cheap notebook nothing fancy. The paper is thin and kind of shiny. You need to prepare pages with gesso unless you are using watercolor paper or if you want the paint to flow on the page.

[@awomanforsuchatimeasthis7749]

[@juliereilly6308]

Thank you for your wonderful videos. I’m really enjoying binge watching them! Can I ask how you dry your pieces of work. It’s it a hair dryer you use? Thank you x

[@JessonArt]

Thank you so much 💗 I can see why you think that but it’s actually a heating tool for crafts. Tim Holtz Ranger brand.

[@ediewilson4043]

Love your videos. What kind of journal are you using?

[@JessonArt]

Thank you so much 🙏💗I use diffrent kinds, old books found in thrift stores, cheap notebooks and authentic art journals. I have two square ones, one from Arteza and one from Dylusions from Ranger, some watercolor journals I don’t remember the name on.

[@ediewilson4043]

@@JessonArt i’m looking for one that lies flat like yours and I am not having much success. Thank you for your response.

[@JessonArt]

The only journal that lies flat all the time is if you bind it yourself with each page (mixedmedia or watercolor paper) sewn together with a bookbinding method. This way you can flip the pages exactly even. France papillon makes her own journal this way. I don’t know if she has a video on it in her KZbin channel or it’s a online class. But there are other videos on KZbin that shows the techniques. I have also made a similar journal with this technique with brown paper bags and I have a tutorial video on my channel a couple of years ago. I think it’s one of my most viewed videos if you click those specifics.

[@ediewilson4043]

@@JessonArt Thank you. I’m a big fan of France.
