 As I have said, I am enjoying the sculptural nature of this journal.Here's a multi-pocket for Art Journal 2019...

This is the pocket- full, below the tags have been removed. The art on the front was from a brochure for the upcoming craft fair in Marlborough, https://www.facebook.com/paradisecityartsfestivals/a.

and the pocket instructions were on youtube. She used regular paper,  which had already been coffee dyed.

Tutorial: Journal Pockets Part 2 (Flip and Journal)

 I used a piece from a sketchbook with brown paper.
The other side is nearly covered with scrap booking paper from Tim Holz and it is attached to the smallest of the pages in this journal, where I doodled some tangle type with a gold pen, and lettered with a new aqua pen.

some March pages

this journal is shaping up to be a sculpture  - page 48( the left side)  in the first photo are visible in the second of pages 50 and 51

   
                                                                    The scrap of paper on page 52 with the butterflies showed up on my work space and appealed to me - after all the black and white. Page  53 is my rendition of work by Ethan Murrow at the Currier...

recent Art Journal 2019 pages

The right hand square is the 3" page.The left side is the back of a 3x5, tabbed index card

The index card is flipped up to see the siide that goes with page 43.

The left portion is a section of a 3"x 3" page covered with the blue from
 AIR projects. A file sized card has the birds .
The blue is from a Dawn Ebbetts' photo.
