Hello Everybody! How are you all doing?
Welcome to my new post! Today I am feeling creative and I want to talk about it. Clear my mind out of all these ideas. Hoping to make a mistake into something positive. And I want to share my decision process with you all.
Guess what I did? Yes! I bought a new art journal. When I see something new that I want to try, there is no way for me to stop. Now that I have it I need plans to what to do with it. There is a catch, I ordered the wrong one.
So I ordered this art journal I’ve been eyeing for months. I had plans to what to do with it. I wanted to use it to re-draw my CC Collection Characters. Everything was ready when I had my hands on my package. But what I see is that the journal is smaller than what I was expecting.
Now I have a journal that is the size of my hand. I was blind by the number of pages and didn’t pay attention to the sizes. So what do I do now? I’ve never had a sketchbook so small before. And I wasn’t planning to return it. What I am thinking of doing is to find a purpose for it.
It is so small, I don’t have a clue what to do with it. I have some vague creative ideas but they aren’t that concrete yet. Now I am going around online to find some inspirations for this tiny journal. And I don’t have one but two journals to plan for.
I have a quick solution. I can use one of the tiny journals for daily practices. I need a new one cause the one I was working on is still back at my parent’s house. So I have 80 pages to practice miniature drawings on watercolor paper. I could live with that. And I can take the mini journal everywhere. It fits fine in my bag.
But I still don’t know what to do with mini journal #2. I’ll dive into Pinterest to see what can I find. There is always something to get inspiration from. I don’t always have to make things up from scratch. People have permission to get inspired and motivated by other’s creations.
It is normal for people to need some kind of inspiration to create art. But there are times when people need it for starting up a plan. It isn’t often but it happens. And I need it right now. I need the inspiration to figure out what to do with this journal.
Thanks to the internet, I now know that I want to do with my new mini journal. I want to create a cheer up journal. A journal with a lot of colors, inspirational quotes, lyrics and things that make me happy. I needed to give it a huge thought before making that decision. I didn’t want to make this into an “All About Me” journal. I am already working on that.
I am happy that I have a new journal and I can do whatever I want with it too. I got the journal that I didn’t know I wanted. It’s small, durable and it has a lot of pages. Now I can’t wait to get started with this. I am going to fill all these pages with color. This will be my new daily practice, a creative practice.
There you have it, a new creative post. Upset I was the moment I’ve realized the mistake I did. I was happy about the brand, the type, and quantity of the paper. But it was the size that disappointed me. Now I am happy that I have this journal. I have two journals to practice my drawing and creativity with. So please wish me good luck in my future endeavors.
Do not forget to give me a visit at The Senspirational ArtRoom. All I need is your support and now you can do so by going to my Patreon page. Or go to see my older drawings at DeviantArt. There are also many other sites that I am currently active. Never forget to add me at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and on Pinterest. Well, I’ll leave now. Be nice to others and have a nice day!
See you all later and take care,
from Ijiserure.
