“The more light you allow within you, the brighter the world you live in will be,” says Shakti Gawain. The world inside oneself can easily be expressed through journaling, which is the manner of participating in self exploration and personal expression without using the common method of sequential thinking. In journals, artists get a free-wheeling medium to doodle, rant and express them. Through journaling, a tantalizing view of interior life can be obtained. More than 1000 such journal pages are presented colourfully in the 1,000 Artist Journal Pages eBook.
The objective of journals is to present the viewer rich, visual inspiration, much like what an artist does through his canvas. The 1,000 Artist Journal Pages eBook is the first book to present more than 1000 journal pages in an attractive visual format. This eBook is capable of capturing the attention of a large group of artists who like to embrace and experiment with this medium. Journaling as a medium has become part of popular culture in a big way and through this eBook, a wide array of ideas; techniques and themes are offered to the budding mixed media enthusiasts.
The 1,000 Artist Journal Pages eBook tells the user that there are a number of benefits associated with journaling. One of them is that it helps in solving tricky issues, which are often not looked at from a third-person perspective. The solution of such problems is often not clear when viewed as a first-person. Similarly, clarity of thought can also be obtained through journal writing. It helps in deciding the appropriate course of action to be taken, in the presence of several options. Apart from this, one can also make use of journals to track progress from a few years back. If one is not satisfied with the current position of life, it may be helpful to re-read what was written some years ago. This could act as a motivator for the future.
Experienced journal makers feel that there is a lot of power in the written word, which helps in giving an outlet for pent up feelings. However, they also feel sometimes that words fail to describe a particular situation or how one is feeling. In such situations, journal makers use drawing or prepare a collage to represent their feelings, which may not be appropriately described through analytical writing. The eBook presents an interesting world of descriptive imagination, as experienced by the individual artists. This implies that the eBook would be good not just for budding artists, but also for persons with a creative bent of mind.
Presenting 1,000 pages of colourful illustrations makes the eBook attractive to its audience, much like the saying, “A picture speaks a thousand words.” Today, with the advent of modern printing technology, it has been realised that colourful literature or words are more attractive than black and white. As an example, colourful newspapers connect with number of readers as compared to black and white ones. Apart from everything else mentioned above, the 1,000 Artist Journal Pages eBook is easy to carry, since it can be downloaded on any eBook reader.
