Lifebook Taster Sessions - Iris Fritschi-Cussens

Hello everyone!

I have a mixed media art journal spread to share today, which was inspired by a class by Iris Fritschi-Cussens in the Lifebook Taster Sessions.


I used water-soluble crayons to create the background, then created the flowers by applying acrylic paint with a palette knife. The finishing touch was to use a pencil to add scribbly lines around the flowers.


I'm linking my spread to Chris' Hold The Line theme at Art Journal Journey.

Wishing you a happy new week,

Alison xox

  2. Hi Alison. This is truly pretty. I agree with Tracey the colors are amazing. The abstractness of this leads the imagination in many directions. Well done indeed. Hope you are having a nice Sunday.
