Join me while I create another double spread in my art journal!

By Tamara Laporte  |   in art journal   

I’m excited as I’ve just uploaded another new episode of ‘Finish a Journal’ on my youtube channel! I made it to episode 6, which is quite a big feat for me as I don’t often manage to keep going on my own youtube series, ha ha.

In this video, I fill up another double spread in my art journal (getting me closer to my goal of finishing one of my journals!) by taking on a fun challenge of ‘drawing another artist’s painting in my style’.

The ‘Draw This in Your Style’ challenge is something that has been going round on Instagram for a while now. I’ve been wanting to take part for a looong time now, but never had the time! It was super fun to do this challenge, this is what I drew/ painted:

To see the image that inspired it, come watch my video (for free!) on youtube here.

I also show you some new abstracts I’ve been working on (teeny bit obsessed with abstracts at the moment).

Hope you enjoy the video and that it inspires you to create! Thanks for checking it out, commenting, liking and subscribing! I always so appreciate your support.

Sending much love and creative blessings your way!

Much love
Tam x

Mixed media artist, teacher and author. I don’t see all IG msgs. For enq pls email hello@willowing.org - Join A Year of Magic & Fairy Tales:

I’m so excited to share this new magical character with you! Here is my take on the Fairy Godmother archetype. She feels like a wise, starry grandmother who carries whole galaxies of kindness in her eyes. ✨

I realised I haven’t painted many older faces before, I didn`t always feel good at them and so creating her was a bit of a challenge and it also felt surprisingly moving. There can be so much beauty in the softness of older faces; the lines, the life lived. I wanted her to feel powerful, warm, and full of that gentle, cosmic “you’re safe with me, darling” energy. Like so many of our own beautiful grandmas made us feel.

It made me think about how rarely we see older women portrayed as magical, radiant, enchanting … and how deeply needed that is (Hello society erasing older women!). So here she is in all her twinkly glory. 🌙💫 How did I do? 😊

She’ll be part of our big creative journey in A Year of Magic & Fairy Tales, and I can’t wait to guide you through painting her step by step.

ps. Blues/ Lavenders/ Deep Purples seem to be my colour obsessions right now! 😉
