A little spring sunshine, a few colorful blooms, and an expressive face waiting to emerge from the layers!

In this high-speed mixed media art journal process, watch a vibrant spring-inspired page come together from start to finish. Beginning with a floral collage background filled with bright patterns, playful shapes, and washi tape, I build a colorful foundation for a hand-painted female portrait. Flowing acrylic ink drips add the final expressive details, bringing movement and personality to the finished composition.

If you enjoy mixed media portraits, floral collage, or finding fresh ways to combine acrylic paint and ink in your art journal, come spend a few colorful minutes at my art table!
