Find Joy Mixed Media with Jenn Engle

Hey everyone, Jenn Engle here with you today to share an art journal page.

It’s no secret that I am a huge Dina Wakley fan and her face stamps are some of my faves. For this one, I tried to color her as realistically as I could using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

Once she was colored, I set out to create a quick and easy background. Whenever I want quick, easy and BOLD I reach for my Dylusions Ink Sprays. You can create a beautiful background in no time with them! I also added a bit of stamping, but that is pretty much it.

To create a cluster for my lady to sit on, I colored a piece of cardstock with the Dylusions to look just like the background. I used a piece of vintage book text to make sure my top piece wouldn’t blend in with the background.

To ground my face, I put some black and white washi behind her. To finish up, I added a Tim Holtz quote strip and that was it!

To see exactly how I made my art journal spread, you can watch the process video.
