thingism29a. Make a purple color sketchbook
Now that I've finished the green journal, I am free to begin the purple one. Inspired by iHanna, I created a journal entirely of green objects. It was lovely, and I was amazed how not-sick of green I was by the end of it. Last night I went through my ephemera collection, picking out purple clippings. This journal will be much more difficult because purple is so much more scarce - in nature, photographs, and even design. I'm also rather particular about my purple; some colors people call purple I would sooner call blue or pink. But as always, if anyone has any purple things to include in the book, please send it along. I have other sources for purple to go through yet, including my sticker collection, make-up, and bins of crayons and markers. So all is not lost. I just anticipate this one to take a bit longer than the year I spent completing the green one. Which is fine - it's all about the process, after all.
