I'm participating in a Moleskine exchange with five other artists. I haven't done anything like this before. How it works is we each get a Japanese fold Moleskine and draw on the first 2 1/2 pages then send it on to the next artist. They complete the 1/2 page and add their own spread with just a little extending onto the next page for the next artist to complete and so on and so forth. The inside cover pages of mine have the 'sign-in' page, where each artist writes her details, and the title of my book.
My theme is Red/Read [both pronounced the same]. I think this will be loose enough to be fun but also still enough of a theme to create a bit of interest. In keeping with the 'read' part of the theme I made my 'sign-in' page a library card. It sits it's envelope with the 'Due Date' slip attached. As we each have a month to work on the book before it is sent on to the next artist, I thought it would be nice to record these dates - library style!
