Colorful Abstract Art Journal Page with Bird Sketch

colorful art journal page

Hello lovelies!

I still don't feel great, unfortunately. I did finally see a doctor last week to rule out pneumonia and he prescribed some medication to help alleviate the symptoms. Other than that he told me to take it easy and get some bed rest.

If you've known me through my blog any amount of time you'll know that it's almost impossible for me to lay in bed with my mind in overdrive. My "to-do-list" is stretching ever longer and I am feeling quite antsy.

Then I remembered that before I fell ill I filmed a little tutorial, but only uploaded it now.

At the time I was tired of the gray weather that I decided to bring in some bright colors on the page to cheer me up! In the above collage you can see some of the process that went into creating this page. I used various tools for the background, such as a brayer and stamps and also a watersoluble pencil to make random marks. 

The little birdy is a sketch I made on a separate piece of paper, cut out and glued to the page along with some strips of collage and random word snippets.

This style is more abstract than my usual and I utilized the white space. I explain this in the short video above. It's a simple page, but in the end it really did cheer me up with all the yummy bright colors!

I really do hope that I will feel more myself soon. Thank you so much for visiting and your lovely comments. I do appreciate every one of them!

Please pin / share this project

    I wish you a recovery from of my heart, hugs Elke

  2. Sorry you're still not feeling well. Bed rest is hard even when you aren't feeling well. All those things you could be doing are swimming around in your brain.
    I love the page you did here. The colors are bright and beautiful.

  4. Dear Duni, this is a gorgeous and delightful page. I always watch your videos and am so happy 😊 that you share them. I enjoy watching you work and the process and methods you use to obtain the beautiful end result.
    Your voice is soothing and you speak very clearly that I feel both children and adults can enjoy and benefit from your videos.
    I never would have thought that makeup sponges or baby wipes could be used for art, but it works so well for you.
    Another fabulous creation, dear friend, and a very much appreciated post and video.
    I hope 🙏 you will feel better soon, Duni.
    Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️
