I created this art journal page using a bunch of paper scraps left over from previous projects and a variety of wet media including acrylic paint, Gelatos, and artist pens. I didn't know where I was going with this page when I started, so I just played it fast and loose. That's always a challenge for me. I really like how the background swirls turned out. I layered red Gelatos with white acrylic paint, added some doodles in black, and finished with wild swirls of shiny gold.
Thank goodness this cold, snowy February is almost over. Come on spring!
