(remember, each 2-page spread can/should include visual journaling techniques AND be focused around a theme that you are developing for your book. spread #1: Collage Papers & visual journaling techniquesWe started off the semester by collaging different materials and textured papers and then drawing or painting on top in the style of your theme. Spread #2: Include a Quote & visual journaling techniques Or a found Word Poem with Visual JournalingFor this 2 page spread, you need to include a quote, stick with your theme and add some mixed media layers with visual journaling techniques. Spread #3: famous painting/ artwork & Visual Journaling techniques Or Gelli print with stencilsFor this 2 page spread, you need to include your take on a famous artist painting or masterwork. Try to ensure that it goes with your theme of your overall book. Spread #4: Pocket & Visual Journaling techniquesFor this 2-page spread, you will continue to stick with your theme, but include some sort of pocket (and something to put inside the pocket!).
