art journal entry 3

I have a few art projects I'm juggling currently. The cliff side house piece one of them. But also one experiment piece with multiple layers of paper, tearing some parts of that paper, and laying more. Repeat often until happy. I'm thinking also using some mixed media paper scraps, gluing those down in a ring shape and kind of going for a portal feeling?

I also have a piece I'm working on that is brought up to the main piece I have to work on as it's for a upcoming art show. The theme being based off of tarot cards. I went for the lovers card for my theme. And I thought that using some inspiration from the painting "The Kiss" by Gustav Klimnt.

Not in the image itself. More like some of the repeating details such as some color schemes and markings. The image I'm working on is having two people walking through the woods hand in hand.

I have the background base color down and some green down from grass. I need to put together some trees. I've cut out the trunks but need to glue down some squares in three different shades of yellow to make up the leaf clusters of the trees.

Really hoping to use the trees and bushes to help make some depth in the piece too.

This is the first time I've tried to somewhat emulate a existing artists style. So we'll see how this goes.
