I think that it's always interesting to find out a little about the author's intentions prior to creating a book such as Journal Spilling, and then to see how those intentions "panned-out" by the time of the book's completion. It's obvious, here, that Diana could not have been more delighted in the nature of the entire process. I feel it is particularly appropriate to feature Diana's book as the first<br />book in The Book Guild, as the spontaneous nature of her work has so much to inform, and offer, to those of us who work with mixed media. Thanks for an inspirational start to The Book Guild. I'll be here every Sunday!Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985968063880398033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-71110722794208319112010-03-29T09:00:30.047-04:002010-03-29T09:00:30.047-04:00What a great way to start out The Book Guild!

I have diana's book and really enjoyed reading what she said about creating it! a very long journey! I bought it because she had watercolor techniques among all the other ideas . my watercolor knowledge is limited and I've just begun working on a journal with a watercolor background.

Honest and down to earth writing attracts me. I would rather read something written from the heart, than something written above my head. Dissertations are fine if you're in school, but not if you're writing an art book. <br /><br />It sounds like Diana's book would be a great read, especially for anyone who takes journaling seriously.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.com
