Trying a New Tool with a Grid Journal

I’ve previously done this with taped-off squares but never just tracing squares. I saw artist Kellee Wynne (https://www.kelleewynnestudios.com) tracing the squares and loved how it turned out so I've been using this method ever since.

Did you know that when it comes to discovering your own artistic style, the QUANTITY of your artwork matters more than the QUALITY? We develop our styles by making lots and lots of artwork! This warm up is a fast, fun way to make 18 tiny paintings in one sitting. This allows you to try out many different compositions and combinations at the same time. Plus, they're pretty cute too.

You can use any colors and materials you choose for this exercise, the important part is to experiment with putting different patterns, colors, and textures together. This exercise can be used on its own as a collage warm up, a way to try out new combinations of colors/patterns, as an art journal page, and BONUS can be easily packed up for art on the go.

Materials used: sketchbook, acrylic paint, Pitt Pens, Neocolor I Crayons, and a color shaper.
