Journal Transition Project
2020
What?
Create a visual art journal which reflects aspects of your
own life and personality in a small A5 sketchbook or
altered book.
How?
Use a combination of drawings, paintings and
text/words to illustrate the suggested themes using a
range of materials, techniques and processes.
Why?
To develop and refine your observation drawing skills by
looking more closely at things around you that you see
every day, and to explore skills in creating drawings
from imagination.Sketchbook and Journal ideas
To begin with you will need a sketchbook. You would have
made one in the taster session, but if you are using a ready
made sketchbook, try to use one that is no bigger than A5 in
size to create your journal as this is a good size. It’s also just as
easy to make your own - look at some of these examples for
ideas. Just use whatever you have available at home. Check
out the links and look on YouTube for ideas linked to
handmade artist sketchbooks.
You can use an

Each double page will have a theme (we have given
you 30 to start with)which should take you up to at
least the Summer term. You can draw from direct
observation, use your own photos or find images on
the internet as inspiration. Look at the slides below with
artists who use sketchbooks and journals.
You can add more pages and continue it over the
Summer too, ready to bring back in September.
You can also collage things into your journal and draw on top of them

Jose Naranja turns ordinary
notebooks into highly detailed works
of art. The artist uses watercolours,
stamps, writing, elements of
photography and drawings to turn
each notebook into a one of a kind
masterpiece.

Naranja worked as an aeronautical engineer for many years but
eventually decided to quit and devote his life to art and travels. The
artist developed his passion for notebook art in 2005 when he

discovered Moleskine pocket journals. As hard as it may be to believe,
Jose is a self-taught artist, but his skills are remarkable. So far the artist
https://www.thisiscolossal.com/2018/04/handm has filled in 12 notebooks and recently has begun binding his own, to

Frida Kahlo's life was expressed
through her work. A chronological
look at her artwork provides an
understanding of the events that
changed her life: her passions,
motivations, disappointments, and
desires. Painting was cathartic for
her, however, writing and keeping a
diary also helped her to establish a
relationship with herself, and to find
a way of expressing her afflictions
during the final 10 years of her life.
Kahlo found that writing, as well as painting, was useful not just
for communicating with her family and friends—and also as a
way of connecting with her own feelings, conveying her ideas on
her artistic practice, and expressing her worries and pains, both
physical and emotional.Chandler O’Leary
