Book Haul and Burn Out
Hi everyone,
I thought I would check in with you all and share a bit of what's been going on here with me and also share some of the books that I've picked up these past few months.
Please be sure to follow me over at my Ko-Fi page, so you don’t miss out when my subscription program starts. I can’t wait to share more with you about this exciting “glow-up” for me and my goal of becoming a full-time artist.
My Ko-fi page: ko-fi.com/diannefagoart
I will also be keeping you updated on the progress of my online, collage workshop which I will be offering through my Teachable site.
If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, please be sure to comment below. I really appreciate all of your comments and input as I move forward with my CZcams channel.
Thanks so much for watching and for being such an amazing support to me always!
Take care and creative blessings to you,
Dianne

Hi everyone, I hope you are all doing well! I'm happy to be sharing with you these next two videos. It actually began with my wanting to cover the back of my recently completed collage journal.

I followed my creative lead and worked on the new cover and...
Gluebook with Me
zhlédnutí 447Před 5 měsíci
Hi everyone, I'm back to working in my junk mail journal and thought I would share a little glue-book with me video with you all. I have been enjoying watching fellow artists work in their glue books and it's been nice to have their videos playing in the background while I work on those days when I'm feeling a bit lonely. So now it's my turn to return the favor. If you would like to see more vi...
Gluebooking while in Overwhelm
zhlédnutí 602Před 5 měsíci
Hi everyone, I went back and forth for a while on whether to share this video or not because I was in the middle of some pretty heavy feelings of overwhelm while recording it. I decided I would because I think it's important for people to see that not every journaling session is as perfect as it may appear. We all have good days and bad days and even though this day did not go as I was hoping, ...

Finishing the Last Pages in My Collage Journal

Hi everyone, Well, I can't believe I am actually saying this, but..... this is my creating the very LAST pages in collage journal. Wow! I started this journal in April 2015, did a few pages, and then completely stopped doing collage like this again until I opened this journal back up in June 2022. So, this is a really big deal for me to have finally filled up every page in this journal. Here ar...

    Okay, not going to lie. The beginning was absolutely boring to me. I came to your site to see the collage pages. It took too long to get to them. Then when showing the actual images, all the close ups and moving the camera around were unnecessary awkward. Just show the complete collage image and we’ll do the rest. Sorry to be negative. You have talent, show it more easily to average utube users. TY!

    This journal is incredible. Masterfully done. And gorgeous. I know it took many years to complete. I admire your persistence, patience, and the detailed care you gave every page. You should consider having it published as an art book.✨️🎨💖

    Hi Diane. Your book haul was inspiring as you always are. Take care of yourself. I had burnout last year. It was very hard to cope. I needed to make changes in my life going forward. This made the difference and helped me heal. The artist needs to come first each and every day ❤ Two books I found to be empowering: "Women Who Run With The Wolves" by Clarissa Pinkola Este's "The Rocking Chair Prophet," which I'm currently reading. Thank you for being so open. I think it truly helps others to know they aren't alone with life's challenges. ❤

    LOVE this Dianne! So happy to be able to view your creations with us and give us inspiration behind your thoughts in piecing together the elements. Q: Are you still considering selling the plain books? I think it would be really cool if you would consider putting together a beginners kit with an image from your Bella Grace collection? I would totally get a set. Thank you in advance with much warm love. Cynthia ❤🙏✍🦋
