It’s here, it’s here! I got back from my trip to Paris and Morocco early October, and finally have a moment to document the essence of what I experienced on the trip.
I believe in taking photos of the landscape, people, places, and inspiration pieces to capture what I’m seeing during my travels. By using my art journal, I am able to capture my impressions, inspirations and even what I’m feeling each day. This is is even more powerful for me.
I used a small journal with thick pages that could absorb watercolor, ink pens, paint pens, and plenty of ephemera and washi tape. Materials used: torn paper, ephemera, glue stick, washi tape, gel pens, watercolors, magazine images, maps, street posters, business cards, feathers.
Wasn’t that fun? I’m taking a trip to NYC next month and can’t wait to start a new journal.
