This is my granddaughter Emma. She is always working in some kind of journal.......which just warms my heart! I have always been writing in at least one journal, if not two or three. I have gone crazy over art journaling. I'm very new to this, but wanted to introduce Emma to this wonderful medium, too. We spent all day Saturday a few weeks ago using watercolors to paint pages in a spiral-bound pad of watercolor paper. It was such great fun and she was so creative and inspiring to her Nana. ")
This time we used a spiral-bound pad of sketching paper. We glued three pages together and then tore out the next three pages and continued throughout the pad in this way. Here is one of the pages Emma painted. We were using acrylic paints, glimmer mists and stencils. We painted pages for nearly eight hours! It was so amazing to get lost in the process that we just lost track of time. We finally stopped and drove into town to pick up some supper. Emma stayed the night with us and we just enjoyed her so much.
