Inspired ...


I've been fiddleling with art journalling, but it's been quite a while. It was all the way back in 2008 that I made Dear Diary, and I have been trying, a couple of times since, to find my way back. With no such luck.

But last Saturday, during our workshop, one of our wonderful participants, Hanne, showed me her art journals, and I felt something inside me make a small click :-) Hannes books were absolutely gorgeous, and I don't know if it was the happiness of her colors or her delicious choice of imagery, or the fact that she'd made so many pages ...  I was utterly inspired!

After a good night's sleep, I got up Sunday morning, sat by my desk, and worked for 11 hours straight! Journalling through the better part of an old leporello Moleskine (Japanese Album). During this week I made the last couple of pages, finishing it today. At Tiger, I got new inexpensive notebooks, contemplating new art journals ;o)

(Hanne unfortunately doesn't have a blog, if she did, I'd definately be followin') :-)


More pages to follow

  1. Hvor herligt, Christine!

    Der er ikke noget bedre end at få sådan et boost af inspiration.
    Jeg glæder mig til at se flere sider af din nyeste art journal. Af hvad jeg har set ind til nu, ser den yderst spændende og inspirerende ud.

    Glædelig søndag!
