 Hey guys, all right, we are here with another video for Artsy Trio November 2023 this month's mood board was created by myself and I Was very inspired by the notion that as we head into fall and winter some of us Myself sometimes included get Yeah, you know a little bit moody. It's all dark all the time. We miss the sunshine So I took some pictures that I've taken on various vacations and things over the years Created a color palette inspired by said pictures and found a quote that I thought was appropriate and Titled it starting new adventures. So anyway, we're going to create something Inspired by the mood board But also there's an Instagram account called making me and I will link it down below And I really find her work very inspirational and Uplifting and so I'm going to link her account down below and I'm going to I'm going to follow some of her guidelines If you want a copy of my mood board and to see what myself and the other teachers have created Not only check out the video description for relevant links But go join our Facebook group artsy trio and there's a lot of stuff in there And if you are a part of the group and you do post something up with the mood board Tag me in the post. I'd love to see what you do. I have been very bad about checking the group I admit that I apologize, but I would love to see what you do if you tag me in the post and more likely to see it So anyway, we're going to get started. I've got some paint in Relevant colors. I am going to mix up a pale pink because I don't have one that I like I'm using a matte acrylic gouache paint and Because that's what I like to do my Painting in my journals with and experimenting. I also have a stencil. I used to create my own stencils. I don't anymore but I do have one of them and this was called for square number nine and I'm gonna I think use that and I've got a couple brushes and Yeah, so let's get started. Shall we all right? Okay, so I always usually add words to my work and this is kind of big, but it's fitting Nine times out of ten. My work is art therapy related. This is definitely one of those Is it my best work? Probably not, but do I love it yet? And this quote that I got obviously out of a magazine somewhere Needs to be on here. So I'm going to use a glue stick. We are gonna put it Right there Practice positive self-talk shifting negative thoughts like I'll never be able to do this to positive ones Like it's exciting to try something new. Never be a bully when talking to yourself And in my opinion this reflects that. Anyway, the next thing we're going to do is make some notes And I'm going to do that on the other side of the journal just like I've done in the past So we're going to switch to this side. I'm going to glue my mood board down and we're going to make some notes about what paint colors and things that I used and my inspiration of the Instagram account and Let's get that done Okay, as usual that our journaling experiment was a lot of fun You will notice that I use some of the black to touch up some oops spots I mean, it's an art journal page. This is an experiment and this is not meant to be perfection And more often than not as I said, I use this as a form of art therapy to work out how I'm feeling About whatever it is that's going on in my mind right now and I love that So anyway, I'd love to see what you do I would love it if you join the facebook group.
