Every Wednesday, she releases a new 'inspiration' video. I learn a lot and I'm ready to give this new adventure a try...
Ok...so, let me back up a little bit. Donna Downey is a Mixed Media artist. She works with lots of different mediums, canvases, acrylic paints, watercolors, stamps {the list goes on and on}. Now, on the other hand, I'm new and not really familiar with this mixed media. I LOVE paints and stencils and that kind of things...but I have never ever tried the techniques Donna uses.
This past January, she launched a new club called "Canvas Create" 2012. Basically, it's a month to month tutorial and learning experience.
I decided to join...and although a little bit late....here's my canvas for January,
It doesn't look anything like Donna's Canvas...but hey...it's mine and I'm totally psych about this :D LOL {can you tell the excitement..}
Seriously, at first...I didn't know what I was doing. I was confused. And I remember what Donna said...'don't think about it...just do it!!!'
Anyway, here's some more pictures.
For this canvas, I picked the word 'JOURNEY'. My daily life is a journey, and when I decided to learn this mixed media...it's a new journey...so, that is the reason I used the word 'journey'.
I've received and watched the material/tutorial for February Canvas. It's another exciting one. I can't wait to get started...I just need to buy a couple of things.
Well, thanks for letting me share my new adventure with you all. Let me know what you think. I enjoy reading your thoughts. Have a wonderful weekend.
