The Eye Journal

 

In the MHA art room, where everyone is an artist, the Art Journal is an important tool for each student to rely on.  It is the go to book for notes on class discussions, ideas and plans for projects and a testing ground for new ideas.

Being that each journal is a personal tool, every student begins the year decorating their journal to his or her personal taste.  They dig in to the store of countless old books and magazines seeking images that speak to them and inspire creativity.  Then they plunder through the collage collections adding, buttons. Stones, jewels, feathers or whatever catches their imagination.  When the journals are done each one is a work of art ready to collect a year of artistic adventures.
