Closeups of pages from Art Journal #2 -
'Never Give Up - Never surrender!'
The italics calligraphy text is an excerpt from 'Tonight', one of my original published poems.
Ingredients: each page of sketch paper covered in 2"wide masking tape both sides, white gesso, tinted gessos, various paints, mediums, techniques, watercolor, acrylic, pens, mesh tape (from hardware store), inks, ZIG calligrapy marker, gel pens, glitter, 14k gold paint.
What do you think of thses closeups? I love the abract quality of these pages. I specifically tried to turn off the analytical side of my brain and let the artwork create it self with little thought or design.
What do you think of the textures, and various layers peeking in and out?
The title of this journal 'Never give up, never surrender!' is a motto from the sci-fi movie 'GALAXY QUEST' with Tim Allen!
Thanks for stopping by. Please leave a comment if you have a moment or 2 - and visit again soon!
Peace,
