New Art Journal





Spread in my new art journal:
acrylic, painted papers, marker,
pastels, collage images...
watercolor, inchie collages,
hand-carved stamps,
and vintage papers.










This journal has heavier paper and
is spiral bound.  It's larger in 
page size than the last journal
I used, which unfortunately means
the entire page doesn't quite fit
on my scanner. I was hoping the paper
wouldn't buckle when I painted it.
It still buckles, but flattens out nicely
when weighted overnight beneath a 
stack of heavy books.








I found myself hesitant to create
the first page in the new art journal...
so I made a collage on a separate
piece of paper and then glued it into
the new journal.  One way of
overcoming those blank
pages and wanting 
the first piece to be "good."
