5 more kilos

Do you remember this Art Journal page from a couple of months ago?

Well.... I have reached another part time goal - I have lost five more kilos. Happy! :)

I like making these motivations pages.... and it is with motivation that I get through my challenges.

On the background I used a technique that Dyan Reavely shows in this video. She is soo funny and good at what she do... I would love to attend one of her classes. :)

The technique basically is about using the Dylusions inks without misting with them. You screw of the "misting lid" and draw with the riser on your page, picking up more color as you go.

She shows two versions of the technique in the video. One where she first mists water on the page, do the drawing, and then mist more water. That gives it a brighter feeling.

I used the second version, where I first mist with the White Linnen mist, then draw, and then mist with the white mist again. This gives it a more pastel look, softer. I like it! :)

I then wanted to add some white to my page, so I added some Liquitex Modleing Paste over a TCW mask. When that was dry I splattered yellow acrylic ink over the page and let it run. 

I use the same "number five" on all of these motivational pages... from my gyms own magazine,  giving it kind of a connection to all my working out time.

The name of the gym is SATS, so the title is a little play with that name... giving the Swedish word for "Go for it". 

A yummy bonus photo! :)
