Get Messy Contrast - Weeks 1-3

It's felt like these last three weeks have flown by. It's been busy over hear in my little art area (we're also within the first 20 days of the #100dayproject), so I'm grouping together the first three weeks of the Season of Contrast with Get Messy Art Journal. This season our guest artist/teacher/mentor is Amy Maricle and I've really been enjoying her prompts and I'm using those as a way to turn art journaling into a form of meditation. I find it's making it easier to let go of my inner critic.

Colour Blast - Purple

Purple is a color I'm very comfortable with and use often. So for this color blast journal, I thought I'd keep the spreads more minimalist so that the purple really stands out. Purple is a color associated with royalty, enlightenment and femininity, so I tired to keep these in mind while working on the pages.




               

  Color blast is a collaborative art journal project and we're now about halfway through! Don't forget to check out the other journals: Vanessa, Julia, Lauren Brown, Lauren Blood, Riet, and Moriah.
