I DIG GARDENING! - art on canvas

Hi! Long time no see.

I've been very busy lately working on my canvas which is my present for my mum who have birthday tomorrow. She dig gardening. I think she has Bergen's most manicured garden :-)

This art i make on 60 cm x 50 cm canvas. I used paint for background colour with lots of different stencil just for making texture in the background. Wheelbarrow and shovel, I've drawn myself. The butterflies, birds, bublebee, flowers. gras and mushroom is made by rubberstamps, and coloured in with different media, such as dylusions ink spray, Faber castell big brush pens and Distress ink.  I must emphasize that the colors are much stronger and healthier in reality.

Do you like it? I do - and I hope that my mum will like it also : )

I DIG GARDENING

This is not all i've been up to. I have also made some art in my journals. As you can see i'am more fond of doing art than writing on my blog. My sparetime goes to art, but I hope you still are with me :-)

PLEASE RELEASE ME....

Out of the way I have my sassy britches on...!

Please write me a comment, just so I know your're still out there somewhere, okidoki? : -)

Hugs from Niti : )

Art Journaling

Hi!
Here I am, again 😊
About one month ago I bought the book"Distinctly Dylusional - A guide to Art Journaling", by Dyan Reaveley. So if you love Art Journaling like I do, and don't already have this book- buy it! This is absolutly awesome. Lots of tips and inspirations in there 😃 I now read it for the second time.



Here is some of my art I did last week and I thougt I will bring in to the May Challenge at Rubber Dance Art Stamps.  The colour for this month is pink, yellow and purple, and we can use flowers if we want to. Yes I do! :)

http://rubberdance.blogspot.com/p/colour-challenge.html

For May, the colours are bright summery shades of purple, hot pink and sunshine yellow

This time I Also will try to explain to you how I did this. Okey, here we go.

This is a cardstock from my Art Journal binder as I bought at Panduro Shop in My hometown. 

For the backround I used Dylusions Ink spray, color Cut Grass, Tangerine Dream and Lemon Zest. Then I used a flower stencil and ghosted the page. 

I stamped the girl with Dylusions Black Sheep collection, Cut out an colored her with Promarker pens in pink, purple and Black. For the "hair"I used one of Tim Holtz flower stamp from the collection called Flowergarden. Her legs is from Dylusions stamp collection called Currious Corrin.I used Distress Ink color Mustard Seed, Festive Berries and Picked Raspberry, to color the flower on her head and for the flowers on the ground I used a flower cutter, and colored them with the yellow Distres Ink, and edged them with pink Distress Ink. In the midle of the flowers I used buttons in pink, ,green and purple. The flower stalk is from the Dylusions stamp collection called Inbetweenies.

For the border I used Dylusions stamp Collection called Further Around the Edge. I colored the border with Black and white pens. Some words in the quote is from Tim Holtz smal talk collection, but the Word "in" and "will" is mine.

As you can see I realy looooove Dylusions, and Dyan Reaveley, and Tim Holtz. They are what i would call real Artists.

Thank you for reading. I hope you will give me a comment and maybe follow me on My Art Journey. That I will appreciate. NeXT time I will show you my newest art in canvas. I hope to see you : )

Hugs from Niti
