It Makes Me feel Safer – Wanderlust Week 3

Hi Friends!

Hope your week has been good so far, TGIF!  Here is another page from my Wanderlust 2023 catch-up, this time from Week 3.

Today’s Art . . .

Today’s art is one of the pages I made for Wanderlust.  This one is from Jeanne Oliver’s Week 3 class where we actually made cards and not a journal page, but after making the cards, I really felt like I wanted to make a page.

So this page is not part of a Wanderlust lesson but I wanted a page to go in my Wanderlust book.  Because I had done NONE of the classes so far this year, I had SIX classes to do in order to catch up.

This was the class that I started with because there was some preparation involved and some overnight drying time.

So I started with the cards, then left them while I worked on another week’s lesson, and then another lesson, circled back to the cards, and so on, until all six classes were completed, and then I decided I wanted a page to go with my cards.

These are my eight cards that I made for the lesson.  They are approx. 4 x 6 inches, like postcard size.  I did follow along with the lesson for the most part but then I went off in a different direction – for one thing, the lesson required the use of linseed oil which I don’t have in the house, and I don’t plan to buy any.  Also each of the teacher’s cards were completely different to each other but I used the same motifs in mine so they would be more of a set.

I am also linking this page to Erika’s theme over on Art Journal Journey this month as the page was made using a lot of pink pastel.

Let me know what you think in the comments.   As always, thanks for reading!
