LauraMixedMedia | Cotton Stem Junk Journal Spread- Using Charcoal, Acrylic, and Coffee @LauraMixedMedia | Uploaded January 2021 | Updated October 2024, 29 minutes ago.
My recent sketch practice has already been influencing my art. I've fallen in love with drawing different foliage, with magnolias and cotton stems being my most favorite.
I decided to switch it up a little bit and change the orientation of my journal for this spread. I think it turned out really fun! I'm not entirely thrilled with the bottom half, but I have always loved how orange and pinks go together, and how turquoise just makes it all pop.
I hope you enjoy the process!!
