my next-to-favorite journal to date chronicles one of my 60-day non-human experiences, as defined by John Randolph Price. (i think this experience is detailed in his book, A Spiritual Philosophy for the New World). this journal began as a 9" x 12" sketch book with a spiral binding at the top. the front cover is made of textured paper, with a couple of coats of shellac, ribbon at the top and bottom, and a mardi gras mask.
i truly love each page of this book, from the first with the pic of that little boy, to the last. in addition to some striking pics, i used all kinds of materials--cellophane, glitter glue, beads, appliques, feathers, ribbons, deco paper, cloth swatches, leather. i especially love the top-to-bottom layout that the spiral binding affords.
the biggest challenge for this week's blog was which pages to include here without making this week's entry too long. i settled for two collages of my favorite pages. if you want to see the entire book you'll have to come to my journal class that begins on Saturday, April 16th or check out my Facebook page or wait until my next 33 Bookzz art show. meantime, just experience how a journal can also be a repository of experiences as well as a chronicle of your spiritual growth over a period of time.
