Creative Play

Posted on March 6, 2020 | 12 Comments

Sometimes creative play in an art journal can be quite fulfilling.

I am discovering the joy of adding collage papers and marks without a outcome in mind.

This page I used a greeting card of a Ladybug that someone sent me. I altered it a little with my whole punch:

I had fun exploring funky flower shapes in this one and black and white stems:

My last one is a work in progress. As you can see, it involves BUGS!

I will show my completed page to you next week!

I encourage you to make time for creative play in your art making.

Happy Friday!

Cheers! 🙂

    A most excellent pastime, Jill, is that creative play where art is concerned. I make a complete mess sometimes, but still enjoy getting there! 😁

    All very nice, but my favorite is the funky flowers with the Frog Forever stamp.

    I love your experiments . My arty friends have been encouraging me to ‘play’ more like this and I think I’m just about ready to start .
