Art Journal School Days

Catching up with art journal challenge week 3. We were challenged to use lined paper, list 10 things about school and have some ink blots. I did not like school much but I still remembered a mix of the good, the bad and the ugly.
DI then watercolour, alcohol ink spots and salt for a weathered feel on the background

Stamped TH Haunted mansion on actetate and coloured with alcohol inks

After the salt

Lists and details

The doodled circles were because I was thinking of the disgusting tapioca


Old bookplate


Tapioca frog spawn and ink splodges
