Last night I finished my last pages in my Moleskine Art Journal! Yay!
It's always a bit bitter-sweet to finish an Art Journal. Sweet, because you've done a great job filling those pages with yummmmyyy paints, collages, jouralling, etc. etc., but bitter because you will never get to work in that book again, and it was such a great place to be, playing with paints, jotting down your dreams..
Now, as much as I love Moleskines, and I really, really do, my next Art Journal will be one I made from old card board boxes and Easter egg boxes. Just to see how that will work for me, a journal made from recycled materials.
I will be posting pictures of the last pages I have done soon, but right now, there's a double bill of ER on, with the lovely George Clooney... Gotta go!
yay for you!! I soooo wish I had the discipline to finish a journal! I love looking at everyone's but I stare at all these white pages in mine! Looking forward to seeing the pages you've created :)
ReplyDeleteLucy, you 'just' have to get some paint out and get started. I always felt much better after I had drizzled at least some paint on the page, so it's not a blank page anymore. I guess that's the reason I did not feel so bad when paint spilled over to the next spread, either. ;)
ReplyDeleteoh, this is fantastic!! i'd love to see more of the inside.
