Almost at the end

I have managed to work in my February challenge sketchbook every day so far.  Only today and tomorrow left!   My previous post is here.

Day 21
Copies of a seedhead photo altered to black and white and to greyscale, stuck into my sketchbook and stamped over.

Day 22
A paper I wiped my brayer onto when I was doing gelli printing with extra stencilling and stamped leaves collaged on.

Day 23
Collage on a painted background

Stamping with a stamp I made from a large eraser

Day 24
A string stamp

Stamping on a painted background - all too fussy for me

Day 25
Acrylic paints to make the background. Stencilled on top and drawn into with black and white pens

Day 26
Inspired by the work of Cas Holmes and Jane LaFazio.  Neocolor II crayons on a gesso background.  Stamped and faux stitching

Day 27
Tags cut from painted paper.  Collaged, stencilled and faux stitching

Thanks for stopping by.

Glimpses of Jesus 8

Glimpses of Jesus in the Old Testament is a year long bible study written by Simon Clay of Jubilee Church Solihull.   You can join in at any time.

Today's post is about the royal line of Judah.

My journal page already had letters stamped on it and I left them as words are made up of letters and prophecy is made up of words.

I used a stencil to draw the letters of Judah and cut a photo of a lion from a travel brochure.  I journaled around the edge.

It's not too late to join in with our Bible Study.  Do have a look back through the posts on the Glimpses of Jesus blog where you will find links to other people's art and poetry.

Thanks for stopping by.

More from Sketchbook Daily

This is my third post about daily entries in my sketchbook.  Last week's post is here: February Daily.

Day 14
I scraped grey paint (rather too thickly) through a dandelion stencil on a piece of painted paper. I cut the paper into 3 inch squares and then each square into 5 strips. I mixed up all the strips and reassembled them.

Day 15
Another collage using the gelli prints plus some previously printed repair tissue

Day 16
A monoprint stuck into my sketchbook with bits of stencilled repair tissue on top and then leaves stencilled with black paint

Day 17
Stencilling and mark making

Rolled a mix of paints with a brayer as a background and then stencilled over

Day 18
Piece of paper where I cleaned up the paint I'd been using. Stuck into my sketchbook and stencilled over with a black pen and then doodled on.

Day 19
I went off-piste with a page in my sketchbook today. I read in Cas Holmes' Stitch Stories book about putting paper napkin over a map. I have used paper napkins before but not over a map. The method in the book seemed very complicated and involved bondaweb and other stuff. I just used gel medium as I usually do.

Back on course!
A piece of painted paper from a previous course with some stamping and a photo on the left. When I pluck up the courage I'll have a go at drawing on the painted paper

A photo I took of grasses. I tried making the image bigger and changing it to greyscale and to black and white. I drew with a water brush and some watercolours.

Day 20
I attended a printing workshop today and used some thermofax screens to print on this Khadi paper. At home I stuck the paper into my sketchbook and did the stitch lines with a pen.
