My art journal right now is a moleskin paper covered notebook. The pages are thin and definitely not meant for the wet medium that I slap down at any given moment. I am doubling up the pages and generously using gesso. So far I haven't had any bleeding from one page to the next. However some of the pages are terribly crinkled. I would hate this if it wasn't just for playtime. I am embracing that and enjoying the added texture! What we have here is messy, smeary fun! Experimenting with doodling, stamping in layers, rub-ons, coffee filters and more. Plus, it was so liberating to make. Like a giant breath of fresh air. So what are you waiting for? Go have some messy fun today!

Steph, It was nice to see that you stopped by my Doodle Pieces and thank you for the lovely comment you left. I also want you to know that I have been loving the new style of work you have been doing lately, especially the ones with your original drawing and painting. I also love this messy, smeary fun as you refer to it, very cool. There is something quite satisfying about mucking about with lots of paint and crinkling can be a good thing.
