Documented Life Project 2015 – Week 52

2/15/2016

Today I'm sharing what I created for Week 52 of
The Original Documented Life Project™ The Journal!

December Theme

Storytelling with the Written Word

December 26 Challenge & Prompt
Art Challenge: Storytelling
Journal Prompt: Storytelling as an underlying fabric
Mary C. Nasser, Mixed Media Art Journal
For this week’s page, I layered black gesso, white gesso, and acrylics for the background. Inspired by the month's theme Storytelling with the Written Word, I knew I wanted to incorporate Seth Apter's stencil from StencilGirl Products' November StencilClub again.

For this page, I continued experimenting with applying 
DecoArt's Media Crackle Paste over the stenciling and DecoArt's Media Antiquing Cream, too. I also experimented with applying Pearl Ex pigment on this page. I did my scribble journaling at the top of the page this time. Lastly, I added accents of white ink to enhance the stencil lettering and marks, too.

I've had requests on Instagram to share more detailed photos of the layers of surface textures I create, so here they are. It's such fun!

So delighted I completed each week's challenge of The Documented Life Project! It was wonderful to stretch and learn each week, experimenting with different techniques and materials and ideas! I'm incredibly grateful for Lorraine Bell, Sandi Keene, Rae Missigman and  Roben-Marie Smith –  for all their time, work, generousity and kindness organizing each week's challenge and inspiring us each week with their own art journal pages and processes, too!

P.S. Didn't forget weeks 46 & 47... just can't post these pages yet because they incorporate my soon-to-be released stencil designs! Stay tuned!
