Mixing Mediums: Stencils, Paint, and Gold Accents in my Art Journal

- In this art video tutorial, I delved into Dina Wakley's Media Journal, showcasing its diverse paper types. Opening the journal to a new page, I embarked on a creative journey, spanning two watercolor pages to construct an abstract layout. Armed with the Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors, stencils, paint, and subtle touches of gold, I explored the interplay of colors and textures. To kickstart the process, I consulted a color palette card from the Color Cube, infusing an extra layer of inspiration into the project. Join me as I navigate the realms of artistic expression, unraveling the steps behind this unique 2-spread abstract painting.

Hey Denise, its always fun to start my Sunday morning with a new video from you! I've been doing art journal therapy for 5yrs now, and the beauty with it is that there are no rules...and if you don't like the page, it just means you don't have enough layers yet!
Clearly you have been inspiring several other content creators because 2 more creative educators on YT have said something about learning something your channel, and encouraged their followers to check out your page! So happy this kind of industry can be supportive of each other, rather than be competitive!
Oh, I love that!! Thank you for letting me know 🥰🥰🥰…
It is definitely all about adding more layers for me too!! Thank you! 🥰
“I feel like we could use a gold in here.” Of course you do! Lol! Thank you for diving into these journals. I have two but have been a bit intimidated. Gonna be brave and get started.
Haha!! Gold!! You definitely need to jump into them... I'm really enjoying it now! 😊
Another inspiring video with love and laughter splattered across the pages. Can’t thank you enough, dear lady!
So glad you loved it!! Thank you! 🥰
Love this! I really like how your backgrounds just seem to appear. I am in the early, early learning stages and get so inspired watching your videos.
So glad you loved it! Thank you! 🥰
It certainly IS sooooooooo good Denise‼️‼️‼️‼️💚💚💚💚
Thank you! 🥰
Can always use a bit of gold in our lives :-) Thank you for another great video.
Right? Haha. Thank you! 🥰
Hi Denise the close ups look even more gorgeous I love the little pearls running down the page and of course the gold. Thx and have a great day
So glad you love it!! Thank you! 🥰
Ooh, loving the orangy gold, especially with the green. Super gorgeous.
Thank you! 🥰
Looks like The Peering Eyes of the City. Love it. You Are Amazing.
Cool! Thank you! 🥰
I have 3 Dina Wakely journals. Perfect for mix media…I add photos, so they are art journal scrapbooks. I haven’t bought the big one because it seems overwhelming, but I think you inspired me to make my garden journal scrapbook in the large book!
These are hard to find now.. but I still want to complete mine... I heard she may be making a new one with different papers. I hope so! Thank you! 🥰
Lovely color combination. I really like putting acrylic over the watercolor - the difference between the dispersed watercolor and the more defined acrylic is a nice contrast in design.
I love that difference too. Thank you! 🥰
These two pages are just beautiful! Love them a lot. 💕
Thank you! 🥰
Super fun, I have the big journal, I bought it when I was just starting and found it quite overwhelming so it sits on my shelf. When I get home in the spring, I am going to get it out. The TCW stencil ‘pearls’ is one of my favourite stencils too, it is very versatile and I love it for texture pastes. Your videos are always uplifting and inspiring, thank you!💕🇨🇦
You definitely need to get yours off that shelf and play!! Thank you! 🥰
Loving this music Denise as I watch you play! The colors and those stencils…so beautiful.
Thank you! 🥰
Beautiful as always. I love the writing stencils. They add such interest. Have a great week Denise. I'm already waiting for your next video. 😊
That writing stencil was fun! Thank you! 🥰 have a great week!!
You just amaze me with every video. I have worked in my art journal book all weekend because of you!
That’s awesome!! Thank you! 🥰
Just when you asked, is there something missing, i thought: the Posca Pen. And you already had the same idea. 😂
I love how it came out.
Haha! Great minds!! Thank you! 🥰
*Always* enjoy what you're doing Denise & this time I'm aware of how much I appreciate that you always work abstractly, even with experimenting in the journal -- so many people use identifiable images and words and so much else that is just plain uninteresting with no adventuring whatsoever -- that is *never* the case with your videos and why I *love* (and am always inspired by) watching them ❤
You’re the best! That really made my day. Thank you! 🥰
Love love love how they turned out. Your videos just make me happy!
I'm so glad!! Thank you! 🥰
Absolutely for spread! ❤
Thank you! 🥰
This was so fun to watch! Excited to continue to see more. You make it so fun!
Yay! Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
I like the green and gold together.
That was a good mix! Thank you! 🥰
This is a great layout! I love how you added the lighter green crayon over the stencil, such a good idea and the stencils look amazing!
So glad you loved this one. I love the extra touches on top of the stencil too!! Thank you! 🥰
Oh, the one on the right is my fave; gorgeous!! It was so nice to see the easy going, excited Denise back after stressing over the initial start of this book🥰🥰
So glad you enjoyed this! I’ve done several more that are coming up and I’m loving flipping through the pages!! Thank you! 🥰
I love this one Denise. Those colors!!
Thank you! 🥰
Love that! I have some watercolor journals that i couldn't make up my mind what to do with. In just going to start with an abstract on that first page and go from there! I want to do a travel journal too. Thanks for the ideas with the bubble wrap and other texture finds!
Wonderful! Thank you! 🥰
On the close-up at the end I love the paper’s texture!
Thank you! 🥰
Really lovely piece of art Denise! This is one of my favourites and the colours are quite elegant and work so beautifully together. Thanks for another very inspiring video.
So glad you love it!! Thank you! 🥰
LOVE IT! I’m so glad you are working in this journal. I’ve had one forever and just didn’t know where to g with it. Great inspiration!
So glad it is helpful!! Thank you! 🥰
Denise, I look forward to your videos every day.The video you did on Klimt and the pattern over pattern inspired me. I used a stencil and filled in with patterns. I love the result. Thank you again fior the inspiration. I wish I knew how to include the photo. But thank you.
So glad you loved that one and enjoy my channel!! Thank you! 🥰
I loved the palette you chose today. I wished I could share it with my mom. I love hearing your thoughts as you build your piece and seeing how you handle the stencils as I don't have a favorite method yet.
So glad you enjoyed this! Thank you! 🥰
Definitely a great paint day, absolutely gorgeous!! Thanks for the wonderful inspiration!!
It was a good paint day!! Thank you! 🥰
You make videos that are fun to watch and so very inspiring. Thank you Denise for sharing your love of art!!❤
I'm so glad you enjoy them!! Thank you! 🥰
I did something interesting today following this vid (fab by the way!). I had 2 pots of acrylic in mid and darker grey that were rather thick. I grabbed a small palette knife and voila - nice thick marks in a pattern, looks 3D!
That’s cool! So glad you did some experimenting! 😁
So inspiring Denise, thank you
Thank you! 🥰
THIS!!!!! I Love this page ❤❤❤ In fact I loved it so much I didn’t wait until the end of the video to go to my craftroom and try this yummy colour combo and lots of texture! And you hit the nail on the head journals are for playing and experimenting 😊
So glad you loved this one!! Thank you! 🥰
Oh my. I found myself yelling at you saying .....we already saw some of the finished pages and they are really beautiful, lol......❤❤ color cube color combos is where it is at. 😊
The color cube combos really are fantastic!! Thank you! 🥰
LOVE LOVE LOVE what you're doing with this book. I'm getting inspired to work in my small journal in a similar way.....I really wanted to find this one but....maybe in the future Dina Wakely will make it again or one similar. Gorgeous spread Denise - love it so much!
Someone said they thought she was working on a new one! I hope so, I’m loving where this is going. You can totally do this stuff in your book too!! 😊
I’m working in a smaller journal by Dina Wakely and you’ve given me some ideas - thanks!
Wonderful! Thank you! 🥰
Beautiful pages! Thank you for sharing and always inspiring us!
Thank you! 🥰
Love this one, and what a nice treat to see you had a new video up!
Thank you! 🥰
Absolutely perfect. Love the color choices. I didn't think the white would be my choice, but now I see you knew best. Thank you, Denise.
So glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you! 🥰
Pretty and beautiful, soft palette!
Thank you! 🥰
Well, that turned out amazing. I have a rowing machine and I love to put my iPad on the rack and get my exercise while watching a video. I love your particularly because they are long enough to take me through the whole half hour of what is pretty monotonous activity. The time flies by and then I am inspired to head into my art room and create something. It’s a win win. The close ups of the detail were fantastic. The colors just went together so perfectly. Have a great week!
I do the same thing!! I have a row machine and I watch TH-cam videos too!! How fun. Thank you! 🥰
this is beyond gorgeous, I love your style of art ☺☺☺
Thank you! 🥰
OMG this video is super fun Denise 😊 I have just started playing in my Ranger (Dina Wakley) sketchbook and mine is 8.5x8.5 which is a perfect size to play. You have inspired me, thank you 💕 for sharing your art!
This book is big enough to make you scared to dig in… but now I’m glad I did. I’ve got some pages I’m loving! Glad you enjoyed this!! Thank you! 🥰
This video was in my auto playlist and I was thinking “ohhh this looks like fun” then I’m like “wait is this Denise Love?” And of course the answer was yes!!!! ❤
Haha!! I love that! Thank you! 🥰
So happy to see a new video ❤ I’ve been watching a lot of the old episodes and can’t find one I don’t like. So much inspiration. Thank you!!! This one is gorgeous 🎨🥰
So glad you are enjoying them!! Thank you! 🥰
Yes I did enjoy today 😉
Thank you! 🥰
This turned out beautiful and as always a little gold is good. Thanks Denise 😊❤
Gold!! Yes! Thank you! 🥰
It looks like everything is on a layer of ice-slush. It’s gorgeous! 😮
It kinda does! Thank you! 🥰
Love your new profile pic!!! Gorgeous!
Thank you! 🥰
Green and Gold! Lovely!
Thank you! 🥰
Excellent ❣️ ❣️
Thank you! 🥰
Gee do I watch you for your artwork or for your reactions of your own artwork??? Love your work either way. Thanks for sharing.
Haha! Totally for the reactions 😁😁😁 Thank you! 🥰
@@2lilowlsstudio your welcome.
So awesome!! Love your work!!😍😍😍
Thank you! 🥰
Beautiful work! Love your videos!
Thank you! 🥰
I need to go buy me an art journal🤩🤩😝😝🥰🥰
It is beginning to really be fun flipping through the finished pages! 😊
Gorgeous 🙌🏻🤩🎨
Thank you! 🥰
Have any suggestions where to find furniture paint samples? Having more is more sometimes…. Fabulous fun today, Denise!
I found my sample pots in a booth at my local antique store! Thank you! 🥰
@@2lilowlsstudio I’ll keep an eye out. Thanks
Gosh this is so pretty and inspiring 🌻
Thank you! 🥰
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Thank you! 🥰
Fun! You make everything so interesting and amazing!
Thank you! 🥰
These pages are de-vine, Denise. Love the “pearls" cascading down the page and the entire color palette. This might be my favorite page, but I do love the very first pages you did using a stencil with the water color and the orange paper in between. What if you did a stencil or mark making on both sides of the orange paper so that the larger pages are the background for the images??? (Sorry, every time I see the pages I can’t help but think about it).
That would be a good idea.. I'm still on the fence on that 1st layout.. I've really been moving along in this journal and the more pages I do the more excited I get to look through it!! Lots of good stuff coming up! Thank you! 🥰
I did a piece using this same stencil from SG. It’s a favorite of mine as well. I’ll see if I’ve posted it or not on site I use the green and Beijing whites in mine sometime back.
I think it is the coolest stencil! I love it! 😊
Totally delightful youtube..loved it!❤️
Thank you! 🥰
Darcy sent me. love it
Thank you! 🥰
I love the freedom of exploration. I'm 49 and a beginner to watercolor painting. I'm stuck with the anxiety of creating and having fun like you do. What can I do? 😢
Just jump in - it gets easier the more you do! Thank you! 🥰
Super fabulous 🎉
Thank you! 🥰
Ohhh so beautiful!! And l LOVE the music in this video. Im gonna look in your notes to see if i can find it. Im so sad that this journal isnt available anywhere 😓 Thanks Denise loved this one!🎉❤🎉
Not seeing music name in notes...please could you tell me the name? Thanks!❤
Thank you! 🥰
The music is from my soundstripe subscription for video music. 😊
Can you give us an art studio tour? ❤
I have one on the channel! th-cam.com/video/tq3y3qarmv0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NXt_agwYO8p-cNY3
❤️⛄️🇨🇦❄️
Thank you! 🥰
Where on earth did you buy this journal?!?
It was on Amazon - but looks like it sold out now. Hopefully they will make more! 😊
Hi Denise, what type of neocolor2 crayon were you using?
I post all the supplies in the description below the video for you! 😊
I saw that but is it a oil crayon that at you are using?@@2lilowlsstudio
Neocolor 2 is the exact thing I’m using. I don’t know what they are made of. They are water soluble too.
What are those paints you love so much? Fusion Paint for furniture?
They are! I love them. I found little sample pots at the antique store and the colors are so beautiful. Most of the time I try to use artist paints.. but I love these little pots of mineral paint. 😊
