Creating Art at the Speed of Life, Pam Carriker


Creating Art at the Speed of Life, by Pam Carriker

This is the second art journaling book I have picked up, and like the first one, it's a mixed media collage type of book, with 30 days of exercises. However, each day explores a different aspect of design, such as exploring the color wheel, or composition, line, or texture. I haven't actually done this type of art, as I am an oil painter, but I do like the book and the ideas, and I think it would be fun to explore when I have time to create just for fun rather than for commission.
