Daily Art Journal - Week 4 and It's Over

Yep, I killed another journal.  Again.  Sigh.

I didn't work in it at all this week.  It stayed on my scanner for days on end after my last blog entry.

But I DID create art every day.  I selected paper pieces.  I worked on art cards.  I even pulled out my idea development workbook and did some exploration in there and I hadn't touched it since July.

Once I get going on all those sorts of things I just don't want to work in a separate journal, too.  It becomes a chore and no fun. 

So I'm thinking that maybe I'll keep this journal around and next time that making art seems to take too much time and it's not something that I can get to, well, then I'll pull the journal out again.  I'll have a place I can accumulate a mark a day until I am somehow kickstarted or my time is arranged differently or some such so that I am again focused on doing art marks that grab my attention more thoroughly.
