Moleskine Art Journal - Goal for 2010
Towards the end of 2009, I began my first experiment with Art Journaling and I fell in love with it. In the olden days, writing used to be my hobby. But now that I am hell-bent on making writing my profession, I decided I needed a new hobby that I could allow myself to be bad at, while being creative and having fun - so art was a natural selection. And since I am addicted to journals, art journal was again just the next step.
I did a few pages this year and restarted drawing/painting. So for 2010, I have decided to take it one step further, and consciously devote more time to it.
My goal then is to finish a complete art journal. I will be using a Large Watercolour Moleskine. I have already done 3 pages in it this year, but there are still 68 pages for next year, so that's more than one a week, and with my schedule, that's plenty. I chose Watercolour Moleskine, because its thick pages give me more freedom of medium. I can use watercolours, paste paper/cards, sketch pens and felt tip pens. It's pretty flexible.
Getting really excited about it now, and looking forward to it.

Good Luck with the project - I did 'a drawing a day' (any medium, but had to be directly observed) in a large watercolour moleskine as my resolution in 2008. These moleskines are fabulous for this sort of challenge! All the best!
ReplyDeleteThanks :-) I haven't set myself specific days beccause for this kind of thing I really have to be in right mood, but I still hope to complete the challenge.
