Write, Tape, Paint. Scrape Technique
Jean posted on the arttechniques group that she had a technique tutorial on her blog so I trekked over for a look-see. Oh my! Nice blog, Jean. I have been working on journal covers for Christmas gifts and decided to give it a try. Here is my first applied to bristol board. I used chalk ink as the base and my tape stuck badly. On the second I used mostly Lumineres
paint and it wasn't too bad but next time I will stick the tape to my clothes first. I love the look of this technique. It can stand alone nicely or be used as background. Its worth the added time and work. As time permits I will be trying some other mediums on this.Here is Jeans blog
Be sure and check it out. http://bluebirdslivinginthemeadow.blogspot.com/

Judy this is very interesting, at first it reminded me of paper weaving till I enlarged the photo, still very different. I love your color choices.
Hey Judy! It's been a long time since we last got to talk - but I wanted to let you know I think these are fabulous!! You did a wonderful job - and I like them both very much. Whomever is getting your journal covers for Christmas is SO lucky! You've got a beautiful blog - I really enjoyed looking around. I've got you bookmarked now, so I'll be poking my head in lots to see what brilliant things you're up to next. :)
Hugs,
Katherine aka Queen Katherine ;)
