Welcome to TBT – Throwback Thursday! Every Thursday I will feature art which I have done some time ago. I thought for my first TBT it would be nice to feature a first I did all those years ago – an art journal video tutorial.

Back then I didn’t dare to speak, thought my accent would be too distracting and weird, so everything I am doing, all the products I am using are in the subtitles. I also didn’t edit the videos that much, so they are quite lengthly, my apologies 😉

I still love this art journal page today. I love the texture of the gesso and collage, love the colours.

See these dark brush strokes in the image above? That is where the distress stains and Dylusions Ink hit the paper directly, there is no gesso blocking it from seeping into the paper.
