A tour of my completed 6" square collage art journal with narration (top video) and music only (bottom video). These videos live on my YouTube channel. To subscribe, click here.
In this video, I created 5 mixed media collages using primary colors. The art journal I was working in only had 5 blank pages left. I decided to create on all of the pages so I could complete the art journal.
I have another longer format video. In this video, three collages will be created in different styles using acrylic paint and magazine pages as ephemera in my new sketchbook art journal.
The collaging sections are a bit sped up to reduce the length of this video.
I brought out my art journal and created four mixed media collages using watercolor and magazine fonts. This 6" square art journal has 80lb drawing paper for the signatures. Watercolor reacts differently on this paper than it does on water color paper. I like the texture and variation of colors I get when using this paper. I'm not looking for a perfect ground for the collages. This video is longer than my usual videos, so I hope you like this format. I'm interested in knowing if you like longer format videos.
A slight spoiler alert! I found that the used calculator tape reacted differently to matte medium when I put it on the journal page. My guess is that I used more matte medium on the journal page than I did on the test.
