Sail Far Away Art Journal Spread

2/26/2017

Today I'm sharing my newest art journal pages! This spread incorporates the words sail far away from lines 11 & 14 of my Let's Go 1 stencil and the pattern from Mary Beth Shaw's Greek Key stencil from StencilGirl Products – with acrylic paints, pastels, inks, collage, and handwritten quotes using techniques from Roxanne Coble's Lyrical online art journal class! This spread is 12" x 18" in my large Dylusions journal:

I'm really enjoying layering and mark-making with this variety of media! Below are detailed photos:

This is GENIUS! I sat here and drooled over your page and with every detail shot, I was more and more impressed. I love how you combined so many different artistic fonts and the color palette you used is so refreshing! It really does convey a sense of adventure and energy and movement and made me want to hop on the first cruise ship heading out! Really lovely work here and I am so glad you shared your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

Mary, I love this. First I noticed the photo of the ship and filed the inspiration. Then I saw the luggage tag! We came home from England aboard the SS America. I have menus, place cards, passenger list, etc from that trip but no tags. Thank you for a lovely page and the happy memories it brought out. Hug!
