Hello All.
This week's theme for Raspberry Blue Sky's 52 Weeks Art Journal is 'Under The Influence'. My page was influenced by the wonderful artist Gerhard Richter.
It was very strange for me not to add splatters or words! Is it still an art journal page?
Thanks for visiting me today.
Have a great weekend.
Alison
Now that's a great inf!uence! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about not using words. I always think it's just a background, but your page looks great and it looks finished to me. Hope you have a great weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteAlison, art journal pages do NOT require words, something I often struggle with. Moving from altered books, where words are seldom used, to art journals, I find it difficult to add words to my journal pages at times. Of course, some hosts require you add written words. When that is the case, you follow the host's request. Personally, I think this is a great page that I can definitely see was influenced by Richter. Even his choice of colors seem to be present. This is great.
ReplyDeleteHad to look him up, okay, yes, very in his style. Just have to be a smart-ass but in my art journal that would be called a background. Dang, but maybe I should adopt your thinking because I'd be a lot closer to filling my journals, lol. I have many backgrounds made waiting to be set free! XOX
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic. I am so used to seeing words on your journal pages, I am kind of missing them on this one :D
