Find Beauty in Chaos--- Art Journal for 7 Dots Studio

Hi Everyone,

I created an art journaling page using my favourite paper from the Cotton Candy Dreams Collection: Strawberry Fields. I love those bubble trees and I really wanted to incorporated them in my project.

I also used a few more matching products from the same collection.

I have a step by step video tutorial below to show how I created this layout. 

I especially love the title and message that I chose for this art journal page. "Find beauty in chaos" is something that our world really needs nowadays. I feel that even if in life everything is as chaotic as it matt seem, it still does have beauty just like a wild garden. I love how wild gardens grow, and this is exactly what I wanted to show thru this art journal page. 

Everything has beauty we just need to open our eyes and see it.

At times, as I was creating this page, it felt it was messy and chaotic but as I kept on adding different mediums, it took on its own beauty and so I knew I had to choose this specify title for this page.

Inspired by Iceland's Aurora Borealis Art Challenge

I've joined an artists collaboration art challenge inspired by Iceland and the Aurora Borealis.

At the time that I created this project I was in a warm colour zone. Everything I was creating had the warm red, orange and yellow hues.

For this Art Challenge I created a 12"x36" abstract canvas

Here it is and below are some photos from where I drew inspiration

The Aurora Borealis can be seen in many colours. I drew inspiration from a red toned skyline for my canvas.

Here are a couple of the pictures below
