Betsi's Art Journal No.1 (2023)

This is the very first time I offer an art journal using one of my own designs, and I must say that I am very pleased with the outcome. Both the front cover and the back cover have unique designs on them which compliment each other very nicely. I've also added lovely details to the cover using French braided trim, as well as a soft denim spine cover. I hope you love this art journal as much as I've enjoyed making it.

The paper in this journal is great for intermediate use of watercolor and ink washes. If you are a watercolor artist who uses a lot (like a lot) of water, this might not be the best option for you. My journals are best used with mixed media, ink, gouache, acrylic paint, and other similar applications.

Additionally, each journal will be accompanied by a set of patterns cards you can use to practice, trace, or use as embellishments in your creations.

Exciting News! I am currently designing Betsi's Art Journal No.2 . Coming soon.
