241143-852290-thumbnail.jpgMonths and months ago a lovely woman named Julie worked in one of my 10 day Collaborative Journals.  When she sent the book back to me, she asked that I work in one of her books and then send it along to some of my artsy friends.  Well, I did that...kinda.  I sent it out and it got stuck for a few months when someone took ill.  Which was OK, but now I want to get the book moving again.  I'm sure Julie thinks the book is lost forever, but I really want to surprise her.  I don't know if she looks at my blog...but either way, I really want to art up this book and get it back to her.

I've had a few people work in it...and the art is wonderful!  Colorful, creative, funny...thoughtful...and wise...but I really want to send the 241143-852292-thumbnail.jpgbook back full and I need some more people to work in it.  You can keep this journal for 15 days just like the other books and because of the size and binding of the book, it's really important that you are extra careful with wet techniques.  Also, you can't remove any pages and things really need to be more flat than not.  Since I want to be sure not to lose this book, I'd prefer to send it to artists I've worked with in the past.  If you worked one of the collaborative journals...we've swapped art...and you want to work in this book, please send your name and address letting me know you want this book.  I will post pictures of the book each time it comes back...if you don't respond quick, you'll have to wait until the book comes back.  I will keep sending it out until its full...I hope to send Good or Evil back to Julie by New Years...so please, sign up soon!

241143-852295-thumbnail.jpgSend your email to serendipityartist@yahoo.com with your address and mention the Good or Evil Journal so I know which list to put you on.  Oh!  And you should know, the pages of this book are lined so if that's not good for you, this isn't the project for you.  Most people are using opaque acrylic paint just fine...but it is food for thought!  You can see more pictures of this journal in the Mail Art Swap section of this blog.  By the way, I call this the Good or Evil book because the saying on the cover is, "she has not yet decided whether to use her power for good...or for evil."  Interesting...isn't it?

I have this at the moment I have done a couple of pages work and want to do a couple more before I send it back but want to check - do you want me to send it back to you or on to Julie. I am guessing you want me to send it to you but just wanted to confirm!
