Mother’s Day Artwork

Lately I’ve become obsessed with Art Journaling. The ability to put color and designs down on paper and not have to “stay inside the lines” has really appealed to me. I am learning to “let go” of structure and just be free with the color and design … and I’m loving it! Below is an art journal page that I made from a Tracy Scott tutorial. Her work is so beautiful and I had so much fun creating this project. The full sheet is comprised of a colorful acrylic background just brushed on, then using her Circles stencil, I added more and more layers in an eye-popping color palette.

I took the final product and cut into 4″ x 5-1/4″ pieces to make cards for my moms, sister and daughter for Mother’s Day, but in the end I ran out of time and they became mini artworks instead. They all loved them!
