This blog is all about me - not my children, my job, my family. Just me. It's great to have a space of my own in the world! Thank you for being here and enjoy your stay! "LIFE ISN'T ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORM TO PASS.......... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."

HAVE LIFE WILL JOURNAL!
I am sure that we all realize that all of us involved in art are a wee bit obsessive right? Well, with me it's journals right now! I can't seem to get my head into art - although today I was able to do something - but I am ALL UP INTO JOURNALS!! I am taking the Remains of the Day Class and I am taking several online journal classes so it's all about the journals!
The 6 cloth journals are for the Remains of the Day although you can really sew any paper into it you want to. The hard cover journals all contain my yummy all time favorite Fabriano Artistico paper which is the only one I use. Two are 8x10, one is 6x9 (I LOVE that size!). The five that are in the process have already been sewn, the glue is drying and will all have hard covers to them - they are all 6x8. So..... a wee bit obsessive maybe?

Hello Elena,
ReplyDeleteI think making backgrounds and assembling journals is also making art !
Are these the journals you learned to make through the workshop of Julie Prichard ?
It seems VERY addictive :)

Amazing journals. They are so very cool. I really have got to just do them.

Elena, I was glad to read that you took the class I suggested - Remains of the Day. Love the books you made! I took the classes you mentioned on an earlier blog - Super Nova I & II. Thanks!

A wee bit obsessive but that's the way the muse works I think. I'm all into journaling right now too (although I only made one of the Remains of the Day journals so far). Who knows what will come next; something will. In the meantime enjoy this for all its worth!
