Scrapshots - Inspiration Tuesday: Christy Tomlinson

Inspiration Tuesday: Christy Tomlinson

Inspiration Tuesday kicks off with a bang! Today I want to introduce you to my hero, Christy Tomlinson.

Christy creates the most gorgeous mixed media canvases, especially She Art. Her designs have so much texture and her layering of colour is awe inspiring. Each piece has meaning and from most of them personal motivation could be drawn.

Christy's website has tutorials and she offers workshops which you can purchase online and complete at your own leisure. I love Christy's blog. It's personal, it's fun, it's colourful, it's informative. And it's where I find most of my inspiration for my own mixed media creations.

Here are some projects to get your mouth watering...

For some awesome inspiration check out Christy's blog.

Christy owns the online shop, Scarlet Lime, where she sells paper crafting kits, mixed media kits and a variety of mixed media products, tools and yummy deliciousness to put you in the mood for creating something wonderful.

In more recent news (hehe) Christy recently signed a contract with a licensing agent and her artwork is now available in a variety of merchandise like mugs, journals, frames, keychains, pillows, etc.

She also sells original pieces as well as prints in her Etsy shop.

What I love about Christy Tomlinson is that she seems so easy going. If you watch the video she made of her garage studio you will see that there's nothing fussy about her. She's all about the art. Her videos consist of a constant flow of information (no uhming and aaahing, if you catch my drift) and she shares her techniques and tips without holding back.
