 Hey guys, we are here with another episode of Artie Trio and I'm gonna reach around behind me and Grab a few things I've gathered inspired by the mood board created by Bea So here's the mood board for this month If you want a copy of the mood board or you want to see what myself and my collaborators are doing And what other people are doing and sharing in the end and we have a Facebook group And so join the Artie Trio Facebook group if you want me to see your post to make sure that I see your post then Tag me in said post family is Messaging each other. So sorry about the ticking in the background I as I've said previously use my art journaling in particular for Therapy and almost always my work has when I do it, especially in the journals has words in it and Especially it seems like what I'm doing the art these Artie Trio collaboration. Don't know why but that's and that's a totally okay with me I Like working through things in my journals and being able to work through it Get it on the paper and then close the journal up and stick it on a shelf when it's done and full so This month inspired by the mood board. I picked these three colors of paint And I happen to own one gelato. I'm not a huge gelato fan. I got this at As a sample at CHA years ago. This is the color snow cone So one of the things I like to do besides use my journal for therapy is to grab those art supplies that I don't use enough and Use them or try them in the journals see if I like them or not So we are gonna I think work on the gray side and put our notes and things on the white side I do Usually when I do these will flip back a few pages I put the mood board and notes on what I used in the piece on the on one side and then the actual work on the other side That helps me just work through different art techniques how I'm feeling different supplies and Deciding whether I like things or not. There are videos for all of these if you want to look on my channel All right, so recently I found a Bunch of Hawaii stuff from a trip. We took a few months ago that I forgot I had it was packed in a Pocket of a suitcase and we were getting ready for another trip and I'm like, oh guess what I forgot it was in here I really This is really speaking to me along with this so before we do anything else I'm gonna cut these out of my mouth and then I'll set them aside and I have two stencils here. I do design stencils, although I'm not currently selling any At the moment that could change at any time But at the moment I'm not selling them. Anyway, these are two stencils poem and Shine bright these are intended to go together We are gonna use them that way and we are gonna see where this leads us So I'm gonna cut my collage bits out here I'm going to do it quickly and Semi-straightly hopefully But you know my art is about therapy and experimentation and not about perfection in the slightest little Bit or meaning of that word I don't know how to do that so Anyway, so I'm going to fast-forward through this next part and I'm going to turn on some music and I'll be right back Why did I create the paste page this way? No idea, but I felt right Sometimes they're not, you know pretty masterpieces and they're just expressing how I feel But that's okay with me because that's exactly what I want Life's a beach shine bright, but first learn how to swim. I mean, you know I don't know how to swim life's oceans, right? Anyway, I would love to see what you do with this month's mood board In your journal on a canvas in fabric whatever Way you choose to do it in whichever form you choose to do it in I would love to see what you do Watch the other two videos in the video description down below and the links are there The link for the Facebook group is down there, too Join us if you do post something in the Facebook group tag me in the post if you put something on YouTube you can send me the link and Yeah, I would love to see what you're doing This is it for today, and I hope it gives you some ideas of what you can do go check out Bay as mood board and in the Facebook group and Yeah, go out and have a great day do something nice for yourself because you do deserve it Just first learn how to swim.
