here’s the next journal page I made in the Strathmore book.
I took my watercolor paper and made rectangles using yellow, orange, pink and red.
Then, I drew different types or shapes of birds in almost all of them with a pencil:
Then I colored each bird and wrote some words in a few of them. And I outlined each with black pen and used some white pen, too. Finally, I stitched around each of the rectangles with black thread.
And here we are again:
And for your viewing pleasure, here’s a little movie, too:
I am creating multiple art journaling pages a week for July and August (and maybe longer). You can read more about it and the book I am using for these pages at the top of this blog post.
I love this little bird art journal page! So cute!

I love the page and the colors you picked. So awesome seeing all these birds and will show my husband since he loves birds. This is a great idea with the color blocks, you are really stretching yourself into new things now. Good for you and for us. Thanks for sharing them with us. Will have to watch the video later when kids in bed.
