Let me introduce you
Reader, meet Art Journal 9. Art Journal 9, meet Reader.
I got this journal at the car boot sale and fell in love with the kraft-paper-coloured pages. They are lined and squared, not really thick but thick enough to take paint and collaged materials.
After every ten pages there is a double sided pocket page, which I love!
And here are my first few pages.
Some journaling and a little character that came out of nowhere.
Doodling while watching art shows on Ustream.
Trying out my circle cutter and new paints.
Circles seem to be a theme lately...
I already feel so much better using this journal. I like the size, I like the paper, I can't wait to get to the first pocket page even though I don't have anything I can stick in there yet but I'm sure I'll find something.
I'm not a massive fan of ringbound journals, but I think I can overcome that with this one.
It will take me a while to fill this journal, so a flip-through will have to wait, but until then I'll be sure to post more pictures.

ReplyDeleteOn behalf of the journal, thank you so very much.
ReplyDeleteohh sweet find Eveline!! Man I think you are the Queen of boot sales ;) I love craft paper, something about the warm brown color is just inviting :)
ReplyDeletewow what a bargain journal, love the idea of having pockets in there. Great doodling. Keep in touch #9, see you soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet, sweet journal! I'm rockin' a hand bound one and a moleskine right now. (Need two to accommodate drying times, heh!). I have trouble with the spiral ones but the pockets would be well worth dealing with the spirals! Love it. Can't wait to see the flip through! <3
ReplyDeleteLove the kraft paper...COOL pages!
ReplyDeleteHello Art Journal No 9! I can't wait to see what Eve fills you up with!
ReplyDeleteThe circle thing is freaking me out because I did a page over the weekend that was just circles. I'm usually more of a triangle girl, so it was different. Are you sure we're not related in some way???
Oohhh wouldn't it be fun if we found out we were, Deina? I've already decided I must be related to Leslie somehow, I'd love to have more arty friends in my family tree. ;)
