Let Your Dreams Fly

Hello my creative friends! Today I have a journal page I quickly made using a wooden dragonfly, oil pastels, watercolor crayons and lots of Creative Inspirations Paint and some Jeweled Inspirations. I made this while in Ohio with Keith's family. I only brought some selected art supplies along with my CI Paints. 

I was really going for a pond with a dragonfly flying overhead. We often see lavender/purple flowers (which I really think are weeds) near ponds where we live. I wanted to include them on my page for more color. 

In my grassy parts I used Sage, Green Olive and Evergreen paints. Sapphire, Turquoise and Tanzanite were used on the water, while Beige was used on the sand/dirt around the pond. All of the paints mixed in the various areas add a wonderful shimmer to the entire page. 

My dragonfly is a wooden one that was made by Genuinely Jane Studios for a Missouri LSS in the Columbia area. I covered it in tissue tape and colored it with Rose Quartz and Tickled Pink on the wings and some more Turquoise and Green Olive on the body. It really shimmers in the light. I love it! 

My flowers have Clear Jeweled Inspirations for the centers with some Lavender paint accented petals. 

It had been so long since I made an art journal page, that I forgot how much fun it was! I look forward to playing again in them. 

Have a fantastic day!! 

See you soon!
