5 Ways to STOP Sticky Mixed Media Art Journal Pages FOR GOOD!

13/3/2024

Picture this: you open your art journal, and instead of a silent page flip, you encounter that dreadful sticking sound. Sticky Art journal pages are a REAL problem, am I right?!

They're also SUPER normal, PREVENTABLE, and even fixable.

In today's NEW YouTube video on my Mixed Media channel, I'm gonna show you FIVE ways to STOP THE STICK for good!

*All product links are affiliate & for U.S. residents only.*

1 When & HOW to Use Spray Sealers

Spray sealers have always been my go-to art supply to lock ALL the layers of a finished piece in place. These come in a wide variety of brands and price points to accommodate every level of artist from crafters to fine artists. I tend to reach for this acrylic spray sealer by Americana the most for my own projects.

Americana Acrylic Sealer Loved by Karen Campbell Artist

If you live outside of the U.S. and are trying to find a similar spray sealer, there are FOUR words you need to be looking for on your product labels: CLEAR, ACRYLIC, MATTE SEALER. That's it!

Aerosol Acrylic Sealers Demo'd by Karen Campbell Artist

I feel a SPRAY SEALER is essential for mixed media artists because it won't re-activate all the layers in your piece.

This is HUGE for fans of watersoluble products like me!!

Stabillo-all pencil or watercolor markers anyone?!

When NOT to Use a Brush On Sealer in Mixed Media Art Journals

If I used a product with a brush applicator (like the mod podge used in the above demo), it would smear ALL my work and basically wreck my piece instead of saving it. A spray sealer allows us to lock in everything, prevent smears, and STOP THE STICK for your art journal pages!

2 Wanna Decrease THE SHINE in Your Art Journal Pages?

Sometimes even when you've sprayed a matte sealer, pages can still look super shiny even when the product is dry. If this bugs you, try Dorland's Wax Medium.

Dorland's is a cold wax, and you can simply apply it with an old dish towel right on top of a PRE-SEALED piece (super important - this wax doesn't replace the sealer, it goes on TOP of it).

In the pic below you can see quite a sheen throughout my art journal spread. This is BEFORE I applied Dorland's Wax Medium.

How to Use Dorland's Wax Medium with Karen Campbell Artist

The next image shows a closeup of this piece AFTER using Dorland's. There's significantly less sheen, and it even smoothed some of the wrinkles from napkin collage or tissue paper collage in the background.

How Dorland's Wax Medium Looks Once Applied to an Art Journal Page with Karen Campbell Artist

While I love the matte look I achieved with Dorland's wax medium, I don't love the way my pages FEEL since using it. The stickiness is definitely gone, but I guess I'm much more of a fan of how my pages feel if I've sealed with matte mod podge or Americana sealant.

3 When to Use a Fixative Spray in Mixed Media Art Projects

A fixative spray is something you want to reach for when you want to preserve what you've done, but keep working. It's about half as strong as a traditional sealer. A sealer is for when you KNOW you're DONE with a project and you want to lock everything in place for good.

4 Super Matte Mod Podge

I've always felt mod podge is an excellent sealer on its own. But even the matte version can occasionally leave more sheen on my art journal pages than I'd like.

I decided to test a new version of mod podge called SUPER MATTE Mod Podge, and found it to be a GREAT alternative to Dorland's Wax for just $10/bottle (vs. Dorland's $27, which I also don't love the feel of after it's been applied).

My only issue with the super matte mod podge is if you used watersoluble mixed media art supplies to create your art journal pages. Whenever you try to apply a sealer with a brush on applicator, you run the risk of reactivating previous layers - which can sometimes look cool, and other times can ruin your work. Luckily Mod Podge DOES make spray sealers as well, in case these are something you're interested in trying!

How to Apply Super Matte Mod Podge with Karen Campbell Artist

Aerosol Spray Sealer vs Pump Spray Sealer

Make sure you watch today's demo because I'll show you EXACTLY why I prefer an aerosol spray sealer to a pump spray sealer. As you can see below, a pump spray sealer offers VERY LITTLE coverage with just one spritz.

Why Karen Campbell Artist Doesn't Love Pump Spray Bottles of Sealant

The photo below shows the coverage from one spray of the Americana aerosol sealer I typically reach for when sealing my projects. I know it's subtle here in the photo, but watch the video. It's kinda shocking how much MORE ground you can cover with an aerosol spray sealer vs a pump spray sealer.

Why Karen Campbell Artist LOVES Aerosol Spray Sealers

5 What if You're Sensitive to Aerosol Sprays?
(or hate the FEEL of Dorland's Wax Once Applied)

If you're sensitive to aerosol sprays, pump spray bottles of sealers, or kinda hate the way your piece feels after applying Dorland's Wax Medium (like me!! there's just something tactile that bugs me here!), you can skip using these products altogether.

Instead, you could simply add a blank sheet of printer paper, kraft paper, or even wax paper from your kitchen between mixed media art journal pages to prevent them from sticking.

Mixed Media Art Examples I HAVEN'T SHOWN YOU YET in My Art Journal

25/10/2022

2 Comments

Looking at mixed media art examples from other artists is a GREAT way to get inspired if you're ever feeling creatively stuck. As you'll see, my mixed media art journal is a place where I love to swatch, experiment, paint, collage, plan or teach online art lessons for Awesome Art School & SO much more!

Do you have an art journal, or have you always wanted to try it but didn't know how? Download my Kick-in-the-Pants Guide to Starting an Art Journal with inspiring quotes from one of my favorite people, Bob Ross. Simply click the button below and I'll send it straight to your inbox!

Once you've printed out your guide, meet me here to watch the series that goes along with it, or check out today's art journal flip-through first.

Before we continue, super quick announcement: All product links are Affiliate. I may earn a small commission if you choose to order through these links but by law there is never any additional cost to the consumer for doing so. I thank you for your support.

For me, art journaling is a place where I can swatch new art supplies, experiment, play, plan or teach the lessons I create for Awesome Art School.

This particular art journal is filled with fountain pen ink paintings like the one above, because I started experimenting with fountain pen ink right around the same time as I bought this journal.

I love to work big, so I always buy the 11x14 size, but there are some smaller ones available too. This watercolor sketchbook is filled with 140 lb. cold press (textured) paper and can honestly take ANYTHING I throw at it from watercolor pencils to full-blown, multi-layer "Hamburger Style" projects with collage, acrylics and mod podge.

If you've never done a mixed media art journal before, or aren't sure what kind to buy, I'm in LOVE with this hardcover watercolor sketchbook by Strathmore. It's the journal featured in today's video and countless others.

If you're going to work with any type of wet medium, and want to work in an art journal, you always want to be working on watercolor paper because it's the sturdiest and will hold up to whatever you're using.

How gorgeous is that red fountain pen ink in these paintings? It's called Widow Maker by Noodlers. It is SO vibrant and fun to work with.

As I mentioned, an art journal can be a great place to experiment with art supplies and learn which ones work well together. Look closely at the painting below on the left.

Do you see a sheen to it? I tested adding pan pastels to my fountain pen ink painting and wanted to see if it would hold up to a sealer (in this case just mod podge). It TOTALLY did, and I think the mod podge layer made this piece even more vibrant than it already was.

I mentioned how sometimes I will plan out a potential project in my art journals too. This one is of a cute interior from Wardhill Castle, the turret bathroom.

How cute is that?! I scribbled some musings about the castle and my curiosity as to whether or not it's legit haunted off to the side :)

Make sure you click over to watch the full video because there are lots of other pieces in this journal that I didn't feature on the blog today.

I hope today's flip-through is giving you tons of mixed media ideas to try in your own art journal. And seriously, if you've always wondered about starting an art journal, but don't know how, or feel intimidated... you've gotta check out this series.

It's a gentle "Kick-in-the-Pants" from me with quotes from Bob Ross to get you creating!

SASSY Pinup Girl Art Journal Page on Mixed Media Vintage Collage!

3/12/2020

0 Comments

Who doesn't love SASSY Pinup Girl Art?! Seriously!!

Why have I not shown you how to draw a pinup girl before?! I had such a blast with this art journal page and can't wait for you to try it! Today’s video is a FULL LENGTH mixed media art project, so if you love vintage collage, pinup girl drawings, art journaling, my hamburger system OR mixed media tutorials - this is for YOU!

Not sure what I'm talking about when I say "Hamburger System?" NO PROBLEM!!

I've got you!! My Hamburger System is a simple mixed media layering system I've developed over time after TONS of trial and error from playing with ALL the art supplies I could get my hands on!! I used to get asked all the time (and still do!) about my mixed media process, and what order I layer my mixed media art supplies in.

I've broken it down for you layer by layer and created a fun step by step video series on YouTube, created a FREE cheatsheet you can download, and EVEN ending up pouring it all into a book because I think it's that helpful to have as a reference on your art table.

I love collaging art journal backgrounds with new materials and trying out new art journal ideas, so was thrilled to try doing a postcard collage! I was not sure how this was gonna work because I've never done much with postcard art, or collaging materials with a glossy sheen, but I was in the mood to BREAK a FEW RULES!!

Grab your art journal, some vintage postcards, your acrylics, gelatos, pitt pens and ALL your mixed media hamburger supplies because it's TIME TO PLAY!!!

How ADORABLE is this retro pinup girl I found to use as our reference image for todays' project??!!

I'm SO excited to paint her into the foreground!!

Before we go any further, super quick announcement: All product links are Affiliate. I may earn a small commission if you choose to order through these links, but by law there is never any additional cost to the consumer for doing so. I thank you for your support!!

If you follow me, you know I'm a super fan of liquitex matte medium for my collage layer, but since I've already started this project in a rebel mood- I'm gonna go ahead and continue that streak!

These postcards are pretty substantial, so I grabbed my good old fashioned Weldbond adhesive because I don't want them buckling or separating. I want them to be locked down and rock solid.

Initially I hadn't planned to use masking tape for this project, but it was sitting next to my art journal, and I've used masking tape tons in the past on my collage layer, so decided to frame my page around the edges. Not only will this add some additional texture to my collage background, it will help to strengthen the edges of my page.

Before we get TOO FAR into the project- we need to talk about background vs. foreground. While I totally love each and every one of these postcards individually AND the composition they've magically created together in my background - I'm not gonna let myself get attached. I KNOW it's hard, but you need to do this to if you intend to paint or draw something into the foreground of your piece. A background is simply that- a background. Of course we want it to be awesome, but we can't be precious about it.

To help me with that, I've added a few scrappy pieces of masking tape in the center of my page, and my stamps!

Next, I added some gesso with my brayer to kick the background back even more, so I have some space to draw.

Don't let this hurt, ok? Background is background! We're prepping the space for someone fun to appear in the foreground, so we need this to head backstage. The rough application with my brayer helps the background take on a bit of a grungy look - which I LOVE. To bring that out a bit more- I added some brown acrylics around the edges.

I know some mixed media art fans kinda hate drawing, but I love it, so a lot of my work ends up as mixed media portraits (because I LOVE drawing faces and teaching people how to draw a whimsical face!).

If you love drawing faces, you HAVE to join me over on my YouTube Drawing channel for my Whimsical Women of the Women of the World series. We're having a blast and you can do this on your own time, any time you want!

If you're totally new to drawing faces, check this series out on my YouTube Drawing Channel to get you started!!

You'll learn how to draw a whimsical face in pencil. It's super easy and relaxed. Then I show you how to add a little bit of shading, and we build on those skills when you're ready for more!

I get a ton of questions about how to draw so many random things, and I really encourage using a reference photo because everything you need to know to create a beautiful drawing is already in the photo. All you do have to do is draw what you see! A reference makes things SO much easier. And if you choose to draw in a whimsical style like I typically do - it's way more forgiving than realism. AND more fun (I think!!).

After your pinup girl drawing is all sketched in - it's time to kick things up a notch and add some color!!!

Have FUN layering in your acrylics and gelatos. Just keep on moving up the hamburger layering system from the bottom up! If you have questions about your supplies and where or when they go, just use your cheatsheet! If you didn't grab that yet, click the button below to have it sent straight to your email!

When I'm happy with my gelatos and acrylic layers, I'm ready to seal it - which is layer number 4. At this point, nothing should move when I add mod podge except for my gelatos. They will melt a little bit, so be prepared for that.

If you don't want anything to move (this totally freaks some people out, and that's ok!) - you can just choose to work only with materials that are nonwatersoluble, and permanent - like acrylics!

Tons of students ask me if watercolors are ok to use in the Hamburger System and where to put them. I honestly don't use them AT ALL in the Hamburger system because they are SO reactive, and just their own animal!

I save up my watercolor love for other projects. Watercolors play nicely with colored pencils, paint pens, fountain pen ink, pens, etc. - and I totally love them, just not for my "Hamburger" projects.

Remember - my Hamburger System is not the only way to go with mixed media- it's just a fun pattern I've developed for layering over time that I love and find to be pretty fail safe. It always gives me gorgeous results, and because I want YOUR art to be AWESOME - I've shared this with you so you have NO questions about what supplies play nicely together and you can just have FUN, which is the most important part of art-ing, am I right?!

Once my mod podge layer dries, it's time to have some fun with my pitt pens! They're made by Faber Castell and filled with India Ink, and I LOVE using them to "paint" more details on the mixed media faces and mixed media animals I love creating. They actually make an awesome skin tone pack that you might want to check out if you don't have any pitt pens and are interested in trying them out. So fun!!

Make sure you do a test swatch of these before you put them on your project because the caps can totally can trick you here and there!

At this point, I just have a blast shading and doodling all over the place with my pitt pens to add detail and depth on my slippery mod podge surface. I use my finger to blend for shading in the face. The amazing thing about this layer and playing with pitt pens, is they can be erased with a baby wipe if something happens that you don't like!!

If you're following along with my cheatsheet for the Hamburger System, you can feel free to seal this layer with mod podge, and then go back to add even MORE doodles!

If you do get any smears with your mod podge here - like I did (because my black pitt pen marks weren't quite dry in one spot before I added my mod podge), that's ok! Everything is fixable- we can figure it out. Just take a breath and redirect the smear!

I always finish up with a white sharpie pen or posca pen / paint marker to add some highlights that pop - they make SUCH a huge difference in your art! Watch the video to see exactly where I love to jazz my girls up, and make them glow!!

Once I'm good to go with my highlights and have finished adding some distress marks to the edges of my art journal page, it's time to seal her up so she doesn't move and so my art journal pages will not stick together.

This is one the HUGEST questions I get from students- "How to keep art journal pages from sticking together?!"

So here ya go - my answer is at the end of today's video. Be sure to stay with me till the end for that tidbit!!

Thank you so much for hanging out with me today!

I hope you LOVED this project and will see ya back here next Friday!! Have a fab weekend!!

I HATE COLORED PENCILS BUT...they kind of ART the best for this ONE thing!!

3/4/2020

I hope you're staying safe indoors and have found some activities to keep your mind, heart and soul occupied and happy.
I personally find the best way to keep my heart and mind happy is to keep my body busy!! I've gone on A LOT of walks. But I'm also keeping busy with painting and drawing!!!
You may remember from last week's email that we painted our son Max's room?
Well yesterday I painted his favorite video game character in there too. Lifesize.
'Cause, really, why not if it keeps me busy and him DELIGHTED!
Seemed like a double win so we went for it!

Sadly it only took me 2 hours so I still had to keep busy for the rest of the day but it definitely helped me take my mind off of things for an afternoon.
Since being creative is working so well for ME these days, I thought maybe it would work well for you too!
So today I'm bringing you a fun demonstration tutorial about how to use colored pencils to help you shade your mixed media drawn faces.
The funny thing is that I REALLY DO HATE COLORED PENCILS. You can see so (and learn why) in the video!! lol!
But then you can also see how I use them to really pack a shading PUNCH to my best art journal faces.
Here's a peek!

Ready to learn and see? Grab some pencils and meet me at your art table. Then press play and let's gooooo!

Mixed Media Art Journaling Adventures, Aussie Style!

Each Friday I publish a free video on YouTube related to drawing, mixed media or art journaling. Well in today's video I am going the extra mile and bringing you a full blown, 1 hour, real time lesson on how to paint this ridiculously absurd trio of....EMU's!!!

I'm so proud to say that the page was painted with paints from my Signature Collection over at Jerry's Artarama. Even though I have 2 kits (one for Fairy Faces and one for Whimsical Animals), these Silly Emus were painted with paints from the Fairy Faces collection, lol!! That's the beauty of art I guess, at the end of the day, can you REALLY put paints into a single category?!

But back to the "emus"...I know what you're thinking..."What in the WHAT?!"

In addition to laughing my head off while painting this (for obvious reasons, I mean, look at the guys little face!!!), I ALSO ALMOST did not pull this off!! I really didn't!!

Do you know how much pressure there is to teach online? Knowing that thousands of people may be laughing hysterically and NOT with you? But AT YOU?

I know we ALL struggle with feelings of not being good enough or talented or creative enough to finish our art pieces from time to time.

Today you can see me struggle as well. I hope by watching you'll know that you're not alone!!!
I don't want to spoil too much of the ending but suffice it to say I do get some help...

Thanks to the 5 page sheet of Bob Ross encouraging words, and my own Kick-in-the-Pants suggestions (and if you're lost, it'll make sense when you watch the video), I was able to - mid way through (minute 41 to be exact!) - get back on track and keep going until this ridiculously fun art journal page was created!! PHEW!! THANK GOD! lol!

Don't believe that I almost can't finish this?? And that I'm totally mortified? I kept all of that on the video so you can see THAT I STRUGGLE TOO!!! And oh man, did I struggle. And laugh!!! But yeah, struggled.

Hope you get lots and lots of great takeaways from today's lesson, but mostly I hope you take away that we are all students, it's okay to laugh at your own struggles and that it's important to give yourself permission to mess up and HAVE FUN! Like I did!!

Press Play below to get your weekly dose of inspiration and FUN!!!
