The Art Journal is a visual diary or a creative journal in which we can experiment with different techniques to express feelings, emotions and creativity. We can use any kind of material, such as paper, paints and so on. I wanted to use mostly paper, so I make use of all the old magazines and newspapers I have at home.
🌵PROCESS🌵
The first thing I do to make a page in my Art Journal, is to look for a phrase that I liked a lot or just based on a specific topic, and then go to develop everything. Where I make my art journal, it is a notebook or artistic notebook that I made myself, with cardboard paper.
For this art journal I wanted to be inspired by one of my favorite singers at the moment, which is Billie Eilish. I love her music and I think the visuals in her videos are phenomenal.
Here I took a paper support that I had thrown in the wastebasket because it had wrinkled, which I thought it was stupid to have thrown away, because if you know how to recycle, that paper will be useful for something else. Which evidently helped me to make the drawing of Billie that I used for this art journal.
I took some papers and cutouts in blue tones, because in the video of when the party's over, Billie's song. She has blue hair, so I wanted to make a background with the same color of her hair. And since in the video she cries black tears, I wanted to add another background inspired by those tears, which I made with black paint.
Use a line from the song that I especially love and is my favorite line from the song, which is:
That phrase is so sad to me, but so real at the same time. It has to be integrated in this art journal.
At the end and to finish, I just glued some dried plants, which are actually a type of weed that always comes out in my garden, but they are like a flower bud that I really like, so I always take some and put them to dry, and then use them in my art journal.
