 Hi everybody, so I'm doing a hop this month with the people from Inspiration Conspiracy and we're doing something to celebrate Women's History Month. I'm going to do an art journal page based on Billie Holiday, the singer, and I painted a painting of her, I think it's a couple of years now, remember if I dated this or not. I might be dated on the back, but I did a painting of her. I think this is from 2014. This is for sale in my Etsy shop, this is the original. And I also at the time did a small postcard and that sold a while ago and is off to its forever home. Anyway, I took a copy of the larger painting and I printed out a couple of copies of it and we're going to use that on our page. I've taken one of those copies and I've put a few coats of Omni Gel, which is an acrylic polymer resin. I got this idea from Shannon Green, I'll try to remember to link her video in the description below. I painted the portrait of Billie Holiday in a class I took with Pauline Agnew. I'll also link her website in the description below, she's a fabulous teacher if you're so inclined to look her up, an artist. So anyway, while this is drying, we're going to do something with the background here. So we're going to let this dry and we're going to turn this into an image transfer and it should be a little bit at least translucent when it's done in theory. I did print two copies in case I mess up the first one. So I'm going to speed forward through my process and I'll be right back. Our page for Women's History Month, Billie Holiday, now I was going to write the quote on the page and as I was creating the page that just didn't feel right. So I cut out the quote that I printed off of my computer and I collaged it on instead with her name and I love the way the image transfer turned out with the green background. It's fabulous. I am glad that it's not dry yet, so it's still a little bit moving around. I'm glad I did two of them because now I have another one I can play with later. But I hope this gave you some ideas of what you can do to create an interesting, our journal page with any theme using Shannon's image transfer technique and just layering a bunch of elements, watercolor, acrylic paint, collage, washi tape, all kinds of stuff on top of each other to create an interesting page. Don't forget the most important thing. Go out and have a great day and do something nice for yourself because you deserve it and I'll see you later. Don't forget to go to the next video in the description below for the hop and by the time you get back to my name you'll have seen them all. Alright, I'll see you later. Bye.
