If you're new to Art Journal Every Day, the concept is simple: It's a commitment to take ten minutes each day to do something in your art journal. No need to finish anything or even like it. It's about making the time to nourish your creativity every day! If you have the time to flip through your phone, you have the time to Art Journal Every Day. If you'd like to share what you make, use the hashtag #artjournaleveryday so that we can all take a peek. You can find new Art Journal Every Day posts here on the blog most Fridays. The archives go back to the first Art Journal Every Day post in 2010.
I have a sketchbook and an art journal. Truth be told I have more than just one of each. (I'm sure you can relate.) How do I determine what goes in the sketchbook and what goes in the art journal? For me, it's easy:
- My sketchbook is a place to explore ideas on purpose.
- My art journal is a place to journal my day and play.
What does that mean?
I open my sketchbook when I want to work out an idea...
...practice a skill...
...keep a record...
...or think something through.
I open my art journal when I want to dump out my brain by journaling...
...or simply have some creative play.
How about you? Do you keep a separate sketchbook and art journal? Let me know!
