Turn your doodles into a personal journal and into art to boot! In the tradition of Keri Smith (Wreck This Journal, This Is Not a Book), Dawn DeVries Sokol has created a fun, easy artist's journal to get kids started with the basics. Doodle about your day; makes lists of your favorite things; write goals and daydream; try different mediums like pens, watercolors, and found art; add in family photos or ticket stubs; use Xerox transfers; and much, much more to create a casual, playful, and often thoughtful journal of your life. Dawn DeVries Sokol is an avid art journaler and doodler. Her blog (dblogala.com) focuses on art journaling, with ideas and discussions on materials, overcoming creative blocks, prompts, and more. Dawn is the author and designer of 1000 Artist Journal Pages, which has sold 16,000 copies since it released in 2008. She lives in Tempe, Arizona.
Here's what you need to get started in your Doodle Diary:\ PENS\ Use all kinds of pens. Find ones that work for YOU.\ PHOTOS & COLLAGE\ Cut up some of the backgrounds, words, and doodles at the back of this book and use them for collage, paste them around the sides of the pages as borders, or glue them down and add on to them!\ Cut out and paste in copies of photos of family and friends. Used magazines also work great for images of people and objects. Turn the magazine upside down while flipping through to see patterns and shapes you might not otherwise notice.
