Wanderlust - Reflections

 The first theme on Wanderlust 2021 was
Reflections.

Week 1

The inspiration was from

Kasia Avery. 

The focal point is a mirror

looking back to 2020,

with a clock face,

representing the passage of time.

I masked off the edge of the page

with Dina Wakley Media Tape.

Here are the items I used,

together with magazine images,

dressmaker pattern paper

& white gesso.

Week 2

The inspiration was from

Laly Mille. 

Gratitudes were written underneath

& wishes were made

as each flower was created.

Here are the materials I used,

together with white & clear gesso,

words cut from an old novel

& a newspaper.

Week 3

The inspiration was from

Kasia Avery. 

A self-portrait & intention setting.

Here are the materials I used,

together with clear gesso,

words cut from a magazine

& a newspaper

& white tissue paper.

Week 4

The inspiration was from

Shay Michelle. 

A watercolour background

over white gesso &

using salt to remove some of the pigment.

As I am using just one side of my journal

for each class,

I had to pick & choose

which elements to include.

On the reverse of the tag

are my wishes for 2021.

I used a Tim Holtz Flourish stencil

with my white Posca pen

over the watercolour background.

Next week we begin a new theme.
