The Great Indoors

     I've never had such a serious need to paint like I have in the last couple of weeks. Color is my happy place, and I hope you all can find yours, and stay safe and healthy! This art journal spread has helped calm me, made with Dyan Reaveley's Dylusions Paints and Stamps. 

  

     I just love the mushroom houses, stamped with the Dylusions (Down in the Woods) Stamp!

     I've also used the Dylusions (Glorious Blooms) Stamp, and Ranger Archival (Jet Black) Ink for all of the stamping, with the exception of the sun. The upside down flowers represent the Coronavirus. 

     The sun was done with an older stamp block, and I just extended the rays with Dylusions (Lemon Zest) paint.

     I had to go through some old alpha stickers to come up with, what I think is the perfect title, and so fitting right now. 

      The specific Dylusions Paints I used throughout this spread are (Black Marble, Slate Grey, Postbox Red, Bubble Gum Pink, Peony Blush, Tangerine Dream, Squeezed Orange, and Lemon Zest).

     I also used Dylusions Paint Pens (Black Marble and White Linen) to make the stems on the flowers, and for the white blades of grass.

     Thanks for looking, and sending out positive and healing vibes to you all!
