Want a sneak peek at the process behind my art journal pages? Well this week for something different, I took some photos as I made my pages with the prompts from Get Messy art journaling. I took a photo as I finished each ” layer”. It was actually interesting to me to break it down and see my own process a little more clearly. Having said that, no two pages are ever the same and that’s part of the beauty of art journaling.
My next spread represents my current infatuation/ obsession with Gouache. This spread just came to me, and took on a life of it’s own. There was no stopping for process shots, just the joy of creating and being in the zone.
Have you ever tried taking some process photos of a project ? It can be quite satisfying to see something created out of nothing, a blank page filled, a recipe cooked or a sketch in your sketchbook. I hope you enjoyed this little post.
Happy weekend to you.

Oh fabulous! Love this! I had been checking out some of the amazing get messy art journalling, and wondered how the process evolved and it all come together. So impressed! X

Love that collaged silhouette Emily. Really interesting to break it all down and I often wish I’d taken more progress shots – esp if I do something I don’t like as much. I have a habit of over-working things sometimes…!

I often take at least one in case I “wreck” it along the way. It helps me be brave on a page, which is kind of silly, but it works for me Rebecca 🙂
