Sometimes you have to find a creative work around. Prompt two of the Stencilfied Journal project had me stumped for a few days until I came up with a solution. The prompt calls for you to stencil on a journal page, rip it out and place it outside. Living in a high rise building in the city means my access to outside is limited and very public. So what was I going to do? I would place my art journal page in a spot that was sort of outside. You get to see just how I did that in this quick video.

The video focuses primarily on how I chose to weather my art journal page rather than on the stenciling process. I had constructed this art journal page over time by painting off excess paint from other projects and adding a few pieces of collaged paper. I chose to use the Stencil Girl® Art Deco Medallion stencil with a gel ink pen. I like the way the black is nice and crisp against the background.
Hanging my page in the window was a good solution for living in a high rise apartment. I am curious to see just how much the sun might fade the design and whether or not, by using the envelope, I can retain the brightness of the artwork on half of the page. Only time will tell. If this works, I might have just found something new to add to my repertoire of techniques.
