Book Notes: "Artist's Journal Workshop"
I do Book Notes videos for CreateMixedMedia.com, which means--lucky me!--I get to read all these really cool books. I usually don't post about them here because these aren't reviews--they're just peeks inside the books. But this one is so cool I wanted to show you so you could go check it out for yourself. I love it and think you might, too.
I heard about this book from my friend Roz, who's one of the contributors; and that tells you pretty much all you need to know: it's a book about visual journals, and Roz is in it. What else is there?

Preordered this one months ago and it sure didn't disappoint! It gets 5 ***** from me!
Thanks for the peek into the book. It looks great, and I joined her FB art journal site. :=)
I agree, Roz and journaling, a no brainer.
On visual journaling, an interesting distinction from art journaling. Because it looks like different work than I have seen in books on art journaling. (not that there needs to be a distinction, I use them interchangeably myself, but I noticed the difference.) Oops, I am blathering.
I make the distinction, Zom, because it's a conversation I had with Roz. She doesn't call hers "art journals" but "visual journals." When I think of the two, I think of two completely different kinds of journals.
I keep visual journals and have for many years, and I enjoy reading about and finding how others keep theirs. This is easily in my Top ten of books and there's great competition around. I enjoyed every page and found new ideas and inspiration, despite the plethora (I love saying that word) of ideas and books already in my collection. I really enjoyed this book.Wouldn't you think every thing's been said already? But it hasn't - obviously!
