The special limited edition red mesh cover of the international
bestseller…
For anyone who's ever had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or
sketchbook comes this expanded edition of “Wreck This Journal, " an
illustrated book that features a subversive collection of prompts, asking
readers to muster up their best mistake and mess-making abilities and to fill
the pages of the book (or destroy them). Through a series of creatively and
quirkily illustrated prompts, acclaimed artist Keri Smith encourages journalers
to engage in "destructive” acts–poking holes through pages, adding photos
and defacing them, painting pages with coffee, coloring outside the lines, and
more–in order to experience the true creative process. With Smith's unique
sensibility, readers are introduced to a new way of art and journal making,
discovering novel ways to escape the fear of the blank page and fully engage in
the creative process.“
