Weekly Art Journal – She Art

I signed up for Christy Tomlinson’s She Art Workshop a few weeks ago and I cannot tell you how much I love the class. I love watching Christy create these beautiful canvases and make it look so easy and so meaningful.

So today I wanted to share with you a few of the She Art pieces I made. All are inspired by Christy. The first one was in my art journal and you saw it last week:

and then I made one in my art journal just for fun:

and finally, here’s the one I made for the Pink Paislee blog:

All three of these pieces use a combination of Pink Paislee papers, paint, sequin waste, rubons, and stamps.

There’s something magical about combining scrapbooking paper, rubons, paint and stamps that just makes it so much fun to work. Mixing all my words together. Truly mixed media. I’ve really really enjoyed Christy’s class and have actually completed one more piece inspired by her. It’s not a girl but it’s almost a direct lift of a piece of art by Christy and I will show it in soon since it’s in my daily journal.

Thank you, Christy, for this beautiful class. I’ve enjoyed every moment of it.

  • Oh, Karen these are amazing!! I love all the texture, the backgrounds and colors. The journaling on each is terrific. I’ve also seen work by others who have taken this class, and I’m so jealous. Just not in my budget right now I’m afraid…but one day!! You go!!
