Art Journal Collage

I've been away most of the last two weeks. While traveling I had very little time to journal but found airports a great place for thinking and sketching. Needless to say, most of what I did journal the last couple of weeks had to do with missing my family, dealing with airport delays, and working in unfamiliar places. 

Yesterday I tried something different. No journaling about airports, drives down strange highways in rental cars, and less than comfy shuttle rides to hotels. My thoughts were more focused on the day to day.

I've seen some really fun journal pages from collaged magazine pages and thought I would put some of my thoughts on paper using someone else's art.




I collaged this page using gel medium to attach a few torn pages from a magazine. The words express my thoughts about my art journal and how it has helped me to overcome some challenges and how to express my thoughts through different mediums. (plus I got to read a few short magazine articles)


Happy Creating.
