Junk Journal
Having done a big reorganisation in my studio has revealed lots of things. I had created this journal cover years ago and seeing it again made me want to use it. I dug through some of my scrap papers and cut, no tore them to size. I also went through my jars of mediums some of which have dried up. I found some gesso that was not dried up and applied it to some of the papers to make them more sturdy. I also found some clears gesso and applied that. Now, this little journal is ready for me to add my artwork. I have been a bit busy with more mundane things that need to be done. Most of them have a deadline. It can be hard to stay concentrated on those things for large periods of time. Applying gesso and creating this journal was a little treat to myself. It was not time-consuming nor was it a brain drain. It was a lovely distraction.
