It feels rewarding to make something for others, and in the end you get some well-earned happy mail in your own inbox (even if it might take some time before it arrives). So why not check it out?

No mixed feelings for this, just love. And mixed No mixed feelings for this, just love. And mixed media simply means you're mixing one media with another, like acrylic paint, collage, crayons and perhaps a few ink splatters on the same page/canvas. It is my favorite thing in the whole world. Next to Art Journals, or perhaps mixed media in Art Journals. And of course cardemom buns with a glass of cold milk is not bad either... just sayin. #ihannasartjournal #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #mixedmediaartist #mixedmediapage #mixedmediajournal #messypage #messylife #messyonmydesk #artistlife #artjournaling #artjournal #alteredbook #visualjournal #visualjournaling #färg #visuelldagbok #konstnär

Good bye September, you were a mess but it got bet Good bye September, you were a mess but it got better at the end. I am all in for October now. September was less blogging and more finishing books (both reading novels & binding together even more junky Traveler's notebooks). Less calm & more angst back again. Less collage and more patchwork embroidery though!

Art is our humanity. We need art so badly, at all Art is our humanity. We need art so badly, at all times. Maybe even more in times of hardship. Not just us creators, but everyone I think.

Glitter heart. 💕 I am working on a couple of te Glitter heart. 💕 I am working on a couple of textile mixed media pieces that I want to use as book covers. This heart I painted pink with textile paint, then added A LOT of glitter too. 💕 I found it in my stash recently and thought it was pretty, wondering why I never used it anywhere... Answer: because I have a big stash that is sometimes overwhelming. 💕 In any case, now it is sewn on top of another fabric also painted by me, and I will continue to hand-sew on top of everything because I love stitching. What is the state of your stash? Can you find what you want still? #ihannasembroidery #textile #textileheart #textileart #mixedmediatextile #mixedmedia #mixedmediatextileartist #heartart #glitterfabric #bookbinding #artjournalbookcover #artjournaling
Expression of creativity. That is what all the p Expression of creativity. That is what all the pages in my Art Journals are really. Expressions of my Creativity. You have the possibility to explore your own creativity within a journal of your choosing. It is benificial for so many reasons I will not attempt to count them all. I'll just mention: it's super fun to play with colors, patterns and express something on an intuitiv level. Give it a try perhaps? #ihannasartjournal #artjournal #artjournalpages #creativeencouragement #creativity #alteredbook #alteredbookjournal #journalingideas #markmakingart #polkadotart #collage #cutandpaste #mixedmediajournal
