So it came as no surprise to me when I noticed more than two years had passed since I wrote:
“When it comes to making a book like this, keep in mind that progress isn’t linear.
It’s more like a dance back and forth through the pages.”
The book I’m describing is an art journal I made from scrap paper, for the purpose of demonstrating how I make my art.
I documented the steps as I filled the pages, videoed my progress, made notes…
..and then a lot of life happened, time passed, and suddenly it’s now.
Time is so slippery!
My disorganised, wabi-sabi approach to art making became the way I made this book, and together they evolved in their own time. At long last, I’m happy to say it’s all done and ready to go!
This is how the art journal came out:

Wow, Mixy,it seems you and I are very alike in our thinking. I’ve been mulling over how to add a shop to my site. What you’ve done is what I’ve been thinking on. It’s really nice, very well done.
