New Season – New Art Journal

Maybe it’s a throw back to school days, for me September has never lost that New-Beginning-y feel.

This bit of year where the edges of summer and fall meet up, crossover a little, shimmy back and forth for a week or two before chillier times set in for proper.

I love all the seasons, but I most enjoy the beginning part of each one.

All the first-in-a-long-whiles  — the little things, the details — I revel in these. Now is the season of crunchy leaves, soup, socks, dark evenings with candlelight and blankets, all of it has novelty value for the first few weeks.

As the season turned I came to the end of my art journal that I played in through the summer, so last week – to coincide with the Equinox – I began this new book.

I also began I new way of documenting – by time lapse photo.  I reckon by the end of this book I’ll have perfected the recording and editing, it’s a learning curve, which I’ll share with you here.

Here’s the makings of this first page: “Wandering Doodles”

Enjoy! 🙂

  1. Oh that amazing tree! The stories it can tell are tantalizing me. Love what you said about the beginning of the seasons. Fall is my favourite and it is so short here. Winter is love too at the beginning and then…..your drawings are so complex. You have a wonderful way of making marks on paper.
