Description:

This is a Mini art journal swap. I've seen several art journal swaps, and several mini journal swaps. I couldn't find any like this, so if this has been done before I apologize if I have forgotten to give you credit.

In this swap you will get a Moleskein or other miniature journal (This journal can be hand made) . The journal must at least me 3x3" and no bigger than 6x6" this is a mini artists journal, it must contain more images than words. The journal can be filled with collage, prints, drawings, doodles, paintings, etc. The point is to do at least 50 pages, or to fill a journal so please choose wisely.

This journal is free reign as far as creativity. If you are faint of heart, don't enjoy artistic nudity, and are offended by profanity, I don't think this is the swap for you. This journal will take some artistic talent. But the media is completely up to you!

Prompts:

  • Draw or collage your favorite animals

  • Draw or collage a word art page or pages

  • Draw or collage your grocery list

  • Page of Medications you have to take daily artistically represented

  • a page or two dedicated to your favorite curse word

  • the obligatory artistic nude

  • Favorite song lyrics used in an art piece

  • abstract expressionistic piece

  • page or two of artistic gripes (ie. an artistic representation of your pet peeves)

  • drawing of your something you don't like

  • page of fears

  • Gross food page, things you find disgusting

  • cartoon of yourself

  • comic

  • an observation

  • representation of a fairy tale

  • some sort of page focused on any religion.

All of these are only a suggestions, you have free reign of your journal but you should at least choose 10 of the prompts. I am going to require that no noobs join this swap. You should have at least one type 3 swap under your belt and a minimum of 5 swaps completed total. you should have at least a 4.8 and a completely filled out profile. No flaking kids! Journal swaps are a hard one to angel! You will have a month and a half to finish this swap and will also be able to work on it before hand.

note journals can be hand made, I made the change up top!

At least 50 one page pieces or at least 25 two page spreads? My art journals tend to be two page spreads. I am going to try to fill the entire journal ofcourse, but I just wanted to clarify.

In my mind that's the same thing for the requirement, as long as the journal is full if you wanted to do a continuous spread across a 50 page accordion book it meets the requirement.
