Soul Restoration for Posterity

Recently I've been taking an online class: Soul Restoration.

A heart healing process

with some forward focus.

The 6 weeks of the class are over.

We get some bonus time to review the lessons and art techniques

before the online videos will be taken down in a couple of weeks.

I have a journal of deliciously painted pages

where I've done some writing that is significant to me.

While my older grandkids were here, I shared some of the art technique videos with them.

They were fascinated with the variety and fun.

So we decided to sit ourselves down for some art time

our own little

extended generation

soul restoration session.

The older you were, the more artsy supplies you had the privilege of using.

At my age, believe me, I had a passel

of artsy supplies that I got to play with! :o)

Oo-oo-oo-oo

*paint application by scraping it on with a credit card....that's fun!

*cut up cardboard from a cereal box,

glue it, paint it, mod podge it, decorate it, write on it, make it your own

*stencil experiments with sequin waste and bubble wrap

*mod podge down lace, sequin patch

*layer paint, tissue paper, mod podge, writing, outlining

And the youngers got some tools for their art fun, too

Notice the felt tip holder box below

We made it out of a cracker box, cut and folded.

I gesso'ed white over the print on the box.

Taylee did the art work---different on each side

I think you have to stand on your head to see the picture below.

It is one of my art journal pages---some juicy beginning color, before journaling

and some freshly mod podged phrases

on my "This equals This" page

in my Soul Restoration small book.

Taylee is peacefully focused and confident

in whatever art process

she gives herself

She really likes

what she creates

Rylee wrote an affirming initialed statement

to herself

plus she made an artsy bookmark

What a sweet afternoon

It's a joy to hear my grandkids' thoughts and see what they create

I love family time
