Unlocking Creativity: A Journey with Dina Wakley's Media Journal
In this art video tutorial, I delved into the creative realm of the Dina Wakley Media Journal, showcasing its diverse paper textures. Opening the journal to a fresh double-page spread, I embarked on an abstract journey using acrylic paints, Stabilo Woody's, Neocolor II Pastels, and a selection of stencils. The process unfolded organically as I explored the interplay of colors and textures on the watercolor pages, capturing the essence of spontaneous artistic expression. Join me in this hands-on session where I share insights into my approach to mixed media art, offering a glimpse into the nuanced world of abstract layouts and the joy of creative experimentation.

Dina Wakley Media Journal - Looks like this one is gone - you might google this journal to see what is available still. I heard it was a discontinued journal and the craft journals were the ones currently being made.
