PC~Page-by-Page Art Journal: ADVENTURE

Theme for this installment: ADVENTURE

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

From about.com: An art journal is a journal or diary that has a strong visual element to it, an expression of your artistic creativity and imagination, not filled only with words like a traditional journal. It's a journal for using your art to express your memories, dreams, and thoughts. How you create the images, and what type of imagery you make, is entirely a matter of personal choice. There are no rules. You can paint or draw, use pen and ink, photos, collage, doodle, stickers... anything and everything.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

You can use any technique(s) you want to illustrate your feelings about the theme. Your completed page should have at least one word on it. The journaling/text does not have to be elaborate - you can paste a single word on the page or you can journal several paragraphs - totally up to you! Your page does not have to be serious or though provoking - it can be fun or funny, serious or light-hearted. The choice is yours!

•You will have one partner
•The page will be 4" by 6"
•Sign or initial the front of the page
•Choose your backing material by how much you are going to glue/add to the front - if you are doing a drawing and not adding any thickness, start out with a really sturdy backing. If you are doing a layered collage, you might want to start out with a thinner backing, etc.
•Let your imagination, creativity, and thoughts run wild!
•You can put info on the back of your page but it's not required

I plan on obtaining a spiral bound journal that is approximately 5" by 7" in which to mount the pieces I receive. Because we are trading 4" by 6" pieces you could add them to your postcard collection, store them in a photo album, etc. - you wouldn't have to make them into an art journal at all!

Let me know if you have any questions at all! There is also a thread in the Paper Cutz forum so we can talk about this series there if anyone wants.
