Art Journal Project

 

Wanda and I started an art journal project back in 2009. We just finished it up last week, and this is the book I got to keep. What a project this was with many starts and stops..and many, many life changes for both of us since 2009. My grandfather died. My mother died. Two of my cats died. I got married. Her daughter got married. Her mother, father, and sister died. Lots of heavy stuff. We can close the chapter on these two books, finally..but I have a feeling there will always be a project brewing between us.

I urge everyone to partner up with someone special, and do this..even if it takes you 4 years to complete.  It was worth the time, and it didn’t cost us much money to ship the books back and forth..we each did a large chunk of work at a time, so it wouldn’t be too expensive. There were times when we didn’t see a book for 6 months or more, and then we’d swap them back..and what a surprise it was to receive it in the mail, and see how much the other person accomplished.

And, now to hold a finished book in my hands..ahh!! It’s magical, I say!
