The Roycycled 8.5" x 11" Art Journal
Some of the best creative journeys start with a page and a little bit of courage. This journal was made to be that first step.
The Roycycled Art Journal is designed for real people doing real creating -- whether you're an experienced mixed media artist, a DIY enthusiast planning your next project, or someone who's been wanting to pick up a brush again and just hasn't found the right excuse yet. This is that excuse.
The soft-touch matte cover feels genuinely lovely in your hands -- substantial enough to feel like something you'll actually use, and beautiful enough to feel like something worth keeping. Open it up and you'll find 100 pages of thick 80lb paper that can handle paint, collage, decoupage planning, colour recipes, sketches, swatches, and every messy experiment in between.
This isn't a journal you save for when you're "good enough." It's a journal you use no matter where you are on your artistic journey.
What's inside:
- Premium soft-touch cover with a rich, tactile matte finish
- Sewn and glued signatures for lasting durability
- 100 thick 80lb interior pages -- ready for mixed media, journaling, sketching, and planning
- Sized at 8.5" x 11" -- generous enough to spread out and create
Use it to document your creative process, collect ideas, plan upcoming projects, or simply give yourself permission to play. There's no wrong way to fill these pages.
Sometimes creativity just needs a place to start.
