this week, our DLP challenge is to use a white pen
prominently on our journal page…..
and i'm super happy about that, because i think the little white pen
is one of the sweetest little treasures in my art box.
it's great for adding a little sparkle in just the right places…...
and no matter how you use it,
it can make any journal page seem like a masterpiece!

ReplyDeleteYou are amazing. Just that.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I must get a new pen,mine isn't free flowing at all and the ball leaves scratchy marks in the ink when it does come out! Can you recommend one please?

Your creations always inspire me. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteThe way you shade and add perspective is SO GOOD!!!
ReplyDeleteHi, Lori ~ this is beautiful! Is the design drawn on vellum? If not, how did you get the transparent look? Your work is always so well planned and detail oriented. Just great!
ReplyDeletethanks so much, jo! this was drawn on a piece of kraft card stock using a sakura white gelly roll pen and black pitt artist pens. the transparent look on the frame was created by coloring lightly with a flesh pink derwent watercolor pencil…..the color on the kraft makes it look white, which was a nice surprise to me! have fun! xox
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lori. I appreciate the info and always look forward to your weekly masterpieces! :)
ReplyDeleteLori, are you still using the uniball signo? I've had awful luck with my white gelly roll so was about to try the signo I know you have mentioned in the past.
ReplyDeletehi melissa! i use both the uniball signo and the gelly roll pen, depending on the paper i'm using. the gelly roll has worked nicely for me on the kraft card stock, whereas the uniball signo works better on some of the black papers i have. xox
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reply! The signo is officially on my to get list!
DeleteI love this, Lori! The sentiment AND the final piece!
