MY JOURNAL FOR THIS COURSE...

I HANDMADE "SIGNATURES" TO BIND TOGETHER ONCE THEY'RE ALL COMPLETE. I USED AN 11 by 15 INCH PAD OF CANSON WATERCOLOR PAPER, YOU CAN GET THE PAD I USED HERE

MY SIGNATURES ARE COMPOSITION NOTEBOOK SIZED - APPROX. 9.75 by 7.5 INCHES

I FOLDED 3 PIECES OF PAPER IN HALF (MAKES THEM THE RIGHT WIDTH AT 7.5 INCHES), TRIMMED 1.25 INCHES OFF THE TOP TO MAKE IT 9.75 by 7.5 INCHES, AND BOUND THEM WITH A SADDLE STITCH - YOU CAN FIND A SADDLE STITCH BINDING TUTORIAL HERE

3 SHEETS GIVES ME 12 PAGES TO WORK ON (OR A FRONT/BACK AND 10 PAGES). I PLAN ON BINDING MY SIGNATURES TOGETHER INTO A LARGER BOOK AFTERWARDS, SO I COUNT ALL 12 FACES AS INTERIOR PAGES.

I WORK IN THIS SIZE AND IN SIGNATURES BECAUSE IT IS BETTER FOR WHEN I DEMO, ALSO FOR SCANNING REFERENCE PAGES. IF I WERE A STUDENT OF THE COURSE I WOULD MOST LIKELY USE THIS OR AN A5 SIZED JOURNAL.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO PURCHASE A JOURNAL, MY ONLY SUGGESTION IS TO GET A WATERCOLOR PAPER OR MIXED MEDIA PAPER JOURNAL OVER A SKETCH PAPER JOURNAL. YOU WILL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE TO USE MORE MIXED MEDIA AND GET A WIDER RANGE OF RESULTS (ESPECIALLY WITH INK) WITH WATERCOLOR PAPER. SIZE IS A PERSONAL PREFERENCE FOR EVERYONE, I JUST THINK A5 IS A GOOD GOLDILOCKS SIZE.

HERE'S A PICTURE OF MY SETUP:
