 Okay guys, so I was working on the June mission inspiration this page here and I evidently after a few weeks off of filming and I mean like only two weeks I Forgotten how to use my camera. I don't know I'm gonna blame it on the fact that it's like 115 degrees here in the Portland, Oregon area today The heat affected my brain. I don't know So I have a few clips here and there of how I did this and what I did, but it's not a lot So I started out by washi taping off A rectangle and I'll cut to the clips I have here while I'm talking and my idea was to paint like a galaxy scene in a planet I started with the planet colors which were inspired by the mission of which the colors are navy magenta and gold and Then I traced off a circle using just the top of a jar that's on my desk with a white paint pen actually a pit pen And a gel pen and then I wanted to add I had the blue and a magenta on here And I wanted to add some gold and I got out First I got out a Krylon 14 karat gold paint pen which was totally clogged and useless And anyway, I've ended up using it up on some random scrap paper I'm pulling the nib out. Anyway, that's a whole different conversation. I'll put that in my vlog And I'll link that vlog if I can remember below Anyway, I grabbed another paint pen and this is a Sharpie gold paint pen water based And I added some gold highlights to my planet with that then I went ahead and took the background I painted it darker to look more like a galaxy like space and added some stars with the White gel pen and this gold paint pen And now the washi tape didn't work very well We can cut to a picture right about here where it shows that the paint bleep lead underneath the washi tape Because it is a very watery gouache that was on my table and that's probably why So I thought well, I have to make a frame Now because I want it to be like a window so I got some gray cardstock out of my just random box of paper and cut a rectangle out the same size and shape as the galaxy Windowscape that I wanted to have And then I decided I wanted to add curtains to it So I took some random lined paper and pleated it and made curtains Punched a hole in the top and added a strip of black cardstock for a curtain rod and a couple of die-cut birds I had on the desk. I I don't know where inspiration came for this isn't isn't where I was going to go for it But I do go with it. I do like the way it turned out. I threaded the black cardstock through the pleated fabric With I just punched a hole in the top and then threaded it through and then stapled it and then I on my typewriter Printed open a window to the possibilities. I do like the way it came out Is it exactly what Mike probably intended with this month's prompt for June? 2021 probably not but I love the way it turned out nevertheless Now I did pinch my finger in my typewriter because yeah, that was the issue anyway Ah Hopefully next month I will be better at the filming thing with these pages and actually catch most of what I did on camera But I at this moment don't think I caught a whole lot, but we'll see if I'm wrong. I'm wrong Anyway, I hope you guys all had a fun time with the June mission inspiration and the mid-month mini-wit mission Which I also just finished if you don't know what mission inspiration is It is a art group on Facebook run by our my art friend and colleague here on YouTube of Mike Deakin and I will link his group in the description below. He has monthly monthly prompts and Inspiration in his group and it is a great way to create pages and not have to worry about not being inspired Which we all suffered with every now and then All right, and his prompts are really exciting and interesting. I think in this month this year he has sort of an ingredients or what I call a recipe list on His missions and so I really am enjoying those very much too He's not the only one that does them, but I do think his are new and unique anyway So that's it for this month. Don't forget to like share and subscribe if you will I'll put the link to Mike Deakin's channel down below if you don't know who he is and you haven't seen his YouTube channel yet along with his Facebook group and Please stay safe stay healthy stay creative and Go out and do something nice for yourself because you deserve it.
