Sunday Mornings 2 Journaling - with Guest Artist Jeanette Montero

I am taking an online Christian art class by Mindy Lacefield called Sunday Mornings 2 Journaling

Today's lesson featured guest artist Jeanette Montero

Here is the lesson

This lesson was a joy to do.  Jeanette provided the template for the butterfly and the leaves.

It is all hand painted on.  I hand wrote in all the words.

This doesn't really look like Jeanette's lesson did, but I am very happy with it.

I am really enjoying these lessons a lot.

  This lesson was making a Mantra & Spirit Animal project.
I really enjoyed working on this lesson....and she also had a study with 5 Scriptures.  Very enjoyable.
The background was collaged, then I drew on the deers.  Then used stamps and stencils all around it, then painted the background in.  Then added my Scripture to it.

I am really enjoying these lessons a lot.

Today's lesson featured guest artist Kimberley Hope Smith 

Here is the lesson

I really enjoyed today's lesson with Kim.  This lesson was such a good reminder to me that God sees the whole picture in my life, not just fractions of it like I do.

We started out by putting gesso all over the page.  Then drew a rectangle in and then used a few different colors of gelatos on the background and blended them in.  Then we used acrylic paint over that...blue and black mixed together to create a night time scene.  Then green paint on the bottom for the grass.  Not painting in the rectangle - and added glitter to it.  Then used a white marker to make the moon & stars and dots all around the sky.  Also used the white marker to write in the God Sees The Whole Picture! In my life.

I am really enjoying these lessons a lot.

Sunday Mornings 2 Journaling - with Guest Artist Shonna Bucaroff

I am taking an online Christian art class by Mindy Lacefield called Sunday Mornings 2 Journaling

Today's lesson featured guest artist Shonna Bucaroff

  Her lesson included doing a Bible Study and then making an art page from that.

My study and art project is based on Psalms 62:5 & 6
5 For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him. 
6 He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

 The background was prepped already...and for this lesson we added layers of papers in various places with matted medium.  Then added gesso on top of that.  This was all done with watercolor paints - except for a few added on designs at the end (the heart, flowers & star.)   The girl was traced on from one of Shonna's coloring book pages that can be purchased through His Kingdom Come.  Then painted in.  I added little word stickers on it beside the girl (which says "it is well with my soul".)

I am really enjoying these lessons a lot.

Sunday Mornings 2 Journaling - The Crucifixion & Resurrection

I am taking an online Christian art class by Mindy Lacefield called Sunday Mornings 2 Journaling

(My cover and first lessons are posted down below this post)

We just got done doing lessons on the Crucifixion and the Resurrection.

The page on the Crucifixion was hard for me to do.  It was very powerful and emotional.

The page on the Resurrection was much easier to do.

I am really enjoying these lessons a lot.

This type of artwork is totally a new way of doing things for me.  I tend to be the type to make things as perfectly as possible.   This class is just the opposite.  It was hard for me to begin, but after I got going I really liked it!  It is very freeing...

This is my first page

Here is a close up of the one side with the words

We started out by making our own stencils

Then we started prepping our pages.  Here are two that I have done

I am having a lot of fun :-)

Looking forward to the next lessons.
