Journal Covers
These are a couple of journal covers I finished recently. One is a full size composition book, the other is a mini one. They are cheap and fun to work with. There's no fear of making mistakes in an expensive journal you bought or one you spent hours and hours constructing from scratch. Just make sure you buy compostion books that have sewn signatures, not glued ones. Contrary to the general school of thought I think you should leave your mistakes and not rework them. I have taught a calligraphy class and I feel it's more important to see the progress you make over time than get rid of mistakes or cover them up. The larger journal cover (not the spine) is splitting apart and needs to be glued back together. The smaller journal cover has some stray pen marks due to the carelessness of not working on a cleaned up table. Also the images glued on the inside covers have bubbles and wrinkles. I'll just call them character flaws. ;) Click image for a larger view.
