Artist Series, Bright & Bold, Floral Fetish, Lorraine Haight Moraine
Two Art Journal Pages by Paula Perry
I’m sure by now, you have seen the gorgeous new range of papers by the incredible artist Lisa Oxley. I’ll confess, I’m a huge, huge fan of Lisa and her gorgeous creations! I’ve been lucky enough to do several of her classes over the years. She has a relaxed vibrancy in both work and personality, and I like to consider her a friend, so I was super excited when I heard about her new range.
There are two packs to choose from…’Bright & Bold‘ and ‘Floral Fetish‘. Just look at that colour, best to pick up both!!!
I’ve used a mix of both packs on my projects. I began the first art journal page by using paint and stencils in the background. I added torn up strips of the ‘easy tear paper’ and the ’tissue paper’. Next I added the cut out rainbow and woman, then finally the punched butterfly and title. My final step was edging with a black ‘All pencil’, plus a bit of journaling along the woman.
I again used a combination of both packs to create the second page and included an Altered Ancestor from the Lorraine Haight Moraine Corestack. The background was created with a mix of paint and gloss sprays – it had started as a bit of a ‘mop up’ page. I then covered the whole background with matte medium, before layering the tissue paper down. I added my cut-out figures, heart and flower. My final addition was a title from the ‘Faces & Figures pack, which I had sprayed pink.
The packs I used are:
Thanks for popping by!
