I love being out in nature and I often take photos. My limited experience with art involves mainly drawing portraits. Since I enjoy gardening and my home is nestled in trees I would love to be able to journal what I see in my environment.
I've learned from all of these journals, however, I found that DJ McNeil's journal appealed to me because of his use of geometric shapes. I believe by using shapes it would help me learn to draw more quickly. I also like what he said about drawing only what he sees. It would make my drawings more factual.
Holly's watercolor art was amazing. I mainly use graphite in the work I've done and I would like to experiment with another medium.
I plan to use the recommended moleskin journal, but I think a smaller Canson Mix Media spiral bound tablet, or something similar, would provide more space to draw and write notes.
