A mixed media art journal page inspired by Teesha Moore and including a proverb about feeling rich, the spread was made with collage, ink, and acrylic paint.

Anonymous asked:
hi!! I was just wondering what kind of moleskine you use. the binding on my journals fall apart when they get chunky :(
Hi! Really sorry for the delay in responding, I haven't logged into Tumblr for a while! If I buy Moleskines, I usually opt for the Moleskine Art Plus Sketchbooks, I've never had the binding fall apart (knock wood) and I use a lot of heavy media. Hope that helps!
