This is my first Art Journal calendar spread. I was inspired by Effy Wild's "Book of Days" videos,
my own daily sketch books and all the artists online who seem to be doing monthly and yearly art
challenges. I've seen, just for some examples, page a day, face a day, sketch a day, cloud photo
a day, artist trading card a day, oil sketch a day, collage a day, postcard a day, handmade card a day.
I do botanical sketches often but like the idea of a thumbnail sized sketch each day.
My plan is to make some sort of botanical or nature related drawing a day in my homemade
calendar pages. Taking one month, and especially, one day at a time with this!
Still have to do a sketch for today.
See anything unusual about this calendar page? The dates are on the right days of the week, but
after I had drawn this page I realized that my weeks started with Mondays instead of Sundays.
Think I am going to leave it this way, though, because that's how my life works---five "work" days
and the two weekend days outlined in gold. Ever get that feeling?

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Miranda--I really appreciate your comments. Think this small format is a good way for me to do the "sketch a day" thing.
