New Live Classes Coming!

Hi everyone!! I am excited to announce that I will be live every Thursday at 1pm EST on my YouTube channel: Amylove!   It is a new series that will be called Art Journal Play Thursday! I was so inspired by Stacy Evans Mixed Media Mashup and I drew upon her example in many ways. When I work in my art journal, I usually have a concept before I begin. There are days when I feel completely uninspired and just want to play. This is an exercise to help me do just that. To start a page without a concept at all, just follow the prompts!!

I will be simply pulling these randomly from a jar and doing whatever it says. I am not using all of the prompts Stacy suggests and I threw in a couple of my own. Here is the list I am starting with and I am sure I will add to it over time:

Acrylic Paint

Ink

Markers

Emboss

Texture Paste

Gesso

Collage

Add Texture

Add Sparkle

Add Text

Sprays

Doodle or Draw

Stamp

Finger Paint

Add Strips of Paper

Add Splatters or Drips

Stencil

Add Dimension 

Markers or Pens

Add Circles

Add a Border

Add Dots

Add Hearts

Add Tissue Paper

You are more than welcome to play along with me on Thursdays and I will draw a stick for each of us, or feel free to make your own sticks/cards. I plan to art journal for an hour and we will get through as many as we can during that time frame. I am looking forward to this and I hope you will join in!
