Mixed Media on Monday

Hello everyone!
Today I have a special post for Mixed Media on Monday.
Over the past weekend I attended a few classes with Dina Wakley to learn some new techniques to add to my creative arsenal. (This post is in now way affiliated with Dina Wakley.com)
It was a fabulous weekend, Dina really challenged us & we all made a lot of art.

For the first time in my adult life I tried drawing faces (seriously) after learning how from Dina. There was a real marked improvement from the start of class to the last face we painted. Such a big difference. It’s something I have to work on so I can get better at it.

I have 96 more to go as Dina committed all us to drawing 100 faces.  

We made are own papers, learned the power of a mark and used some of the papers we made to add layers to tags and journal pages.

After returning home and getting some sleep, I made an art journal page Dina style with a few of the techniques I learned in class.

If you ever get a chance to take a class with Dina Wakley, I would highly recommend it.
Dina is not only a talented artist, she is so funny, she makes learning easy and the techniques doable so you can go home and replicate it. (This post is in no way affiliated with Dina Wakley.com)
