If you're new to Art Journal Every Day, there is a short introduction here. All of the previous posts can be found archived here. There is a flickr group for sharing right here. Remember, it's just ten minutes of nourishing your creative self every day! No need to finish anything or even like it. If you've done some art journaling this week and you've blogged about it, or put it on flickr, please leave a link in the linky list at the end of this post. Thanks!
I'm currently obsessed with the Liquitex Spray Paints thanks to my friend Ronda, who introduced me to their awesomeness. Even though they're low odor, it's a good idea to spray in a well ventilated area and/or use a respirator. Here I am in mine:
Super glam, right?
In any case, I've been spraying my brains out and having a ball following the learning curve. Here are a few pages from my art journal that I've sprayed in preparation for journaling later:
Remember the Thermofax prints I shared on Wednesday? I shared this page:
The white that you see is spray paint!
I also took one of the faces from Wednesday's post that I had screenprinted onto Deli Paper and glued it into my journal. Then I went crazy with the spray paints and stencils!
This is the only process shot I took and it's not a very good photo:
I was letting the spray paint drip down. And here is the finished spread:
I really love how it turned out! Definitely going to keep playing with spray paint! The only problem is now I need want more colors!
Here is this week's linky list:
Thanks for stopping by!

Those spray paints come in so many yummy colors, of course you need more Julie! That page is wonderful with all the layers of color and patterns.

Love what you are doing with the spray paints in your journal. Can’t wait for better weather to use them again! Those spray paints are so addictive! I used them to paint my aging outdoor Christmas decorations- and it worked magically. Now that boring cream colored angel was lime green and pink!

Great job! I might have to get some of those spray paints to add to my arsenal. Of course, I’ll also need one of those sexy respirators. I wonder if they come in pink to match my hair!
By the way, I LOVE your new profile photo. It’s very attractive…and sexy! You have really blossomed!

Julie,
Thanks for pointing out that a respirator is a very good safety item to have. Hey, anyone wearing one should rock it knowing that they are protecting themselves.
I have got to try those paints too!

Love that spread – your faces get more interesting all the time – also loooove those Liquitex paints – I have about 6 colors and absolutely “need” more. I love that they are permanent and they spray so well – no messes unless you want one!! LOL

I laughed when I saw you in your respirator… not that you look funny, but because now I know someone else wears one besides my husband… the Penmaker. Please take a look…
