Easy Art Journal Background – Use Your Table Paper!
Here's a really easy way to create an "instant" background in your art journal - if you use paper to protect your work surface, that is. If you use a fancy wipeable one, you're on your own. ;)
I love how my paper looks after it's been thoroughly used. I hate to throw away such deliciousness, so I cut away the good parts and keep them handy for future use. One of the quickest and easiest things to do is use them as your ready-to-go art journal background.
Slap it into your book with some gel medium under and on top and BAM! You're good to go.
I didn't add anything to this background, just used it as is and added more paint on top for the face and used a Sharpie paint pen (extra fine) for the journaling.
I love how it turned out. Try it some time. It's a great way to get a jump start on your art journal page.
