Art journal page – Day 9 of 30 in 30

Manners Mean Nothing
Day 9 of 30 in 30

This is an art journal page, and isn’t for sale..yet. However, I might do something I’ve never done before, and offer the entire book for sale when I’m finished. I have toyed with this idea for many years now, but never have gone through with it.

I haven’t decided yet if I can let the book go once it’s finished. We’ll see how attached I grow to it in the meantime. My art journals feel sacred, and so personal to me, the thought of never seeing it again just might be too much to bear. We’ll see. 

If I counted correctly, there will be a total of 100 paintings in the book once I’m finished. It’s sorta my (loosely made) new year’s resolution to get the book finished by the end of April, and to do that, I need to work in it nearly every day until then. It’s a brand new book, so 100 pages by April 30th might be a lofty goal when I only have 5 completed. I have it open on my work table right now, so when I walk in my studio, it’s pretty much the first thing I see. It will be hard to ignore it this way. 

PS: I’ve filmed the process of every painting so far in this book, but you’ll have to subscribe to my youtube channel to know when I post it. I have many videos lined up in my queue now to edit, so it will be sometime in Feb or March.
