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!
When I travel, I generally carry two types of art journals with me: my blank watercolor book and my Gelli Printed Journal. Today I thought I'd share some pages from my Gelli Printed Journal. It starts out super colorful and then I add black, white, and some neons.
First up, an alphabet:
I used the same bird motif from last week in a very different looking spread:
Birds led me to feathers….
Flowers are always a good idea, right?
Faces look a little funky with the patterned Gelli Prints in them!
And finally a mixture of land and sky.
I'm thinking of offering an online class all about this style of art journaling. What do you think? Is that something you'd be interested in?
Here is this week's linky list:
Thanks for stopping by!





Love teeth are tough and the colors you used with the feathers (red/black). Thanks for continuing to share your art journaling on Fridays. I look forward to it.

I love this kind of reverse journaling. I have tried it during the last week of 28 patterns. It always turns out so powerful. As usual these are great pages.

Exceptionally striking pages! also, exceptional skill in doing these “reverse” drawings. I like your term “maximalist”. Adding one more feature (white, neon, etc ) to an already satisfying image gives such depth and complexity to your work.
I am curious about gelli printing. How is it different from monoprinting papers?
Perhaps a two stage class, gel print first then reverse drawing w black (is that India ink that is so black?)
