Art Journal

[mpizzazz]

I've put this together out of a lot of painted paper towels, napkins, maps and photos from books and magazines. They are all ironed onto some old fusible interfacing that wasn't good for sewing through otherwise I would have sewed around the edges.
The covers are cardboard, painted, modeling paste, stencils, etc.

I was lucky enough to nail one of your paper towels at Donna's last year. It's the best looking part of my journal.

Fabulous job Marianne!!
Question: did you cover the magazine pages with any kind of medium, other than where they've obviously been overlapped with towel, etc?

I replied to this earlier but I don't know what happened to the post. Most of the pages have a light wash of gesso or a tannish paint painted over in a hit or miss fashion. I also use matte medium over magazine pictures because I don't like the shine of them.

Thank you for all the comments, everyone!
