Title: Get Messy Art
Author: Caylee Grey
Publisher: Quarry Books and Quarto Knows
ISBN: 780760371169
The author gives you great insight on the Messy Art Movement and how it can spark creativity in yourself. She then goes over the anti-supply list of materials and gets you started on how to create your own Messy Journal. You’ll then follow the 4 trails: Spark, Grow, Cultivate, and Connect.
In Get Messy Art you’ll be given instructions on how to create art on your journal pages along with various techniques that are used. One technique that I found interesting was the project using Modeling Paste, the so-called Frosting on the Cake. It really adds nice color and texture to your art projects and journaling pages. A definite must-try for me!
Another technique I found fascintating is the how to dye paper using coffee. It will give that aged and weathered look to the paper and is a very easy technique to do. I really enjoyed learning more about the artists that are featured in the book along with what inspires their art. All of them are creative!
