Moleskine ArtMart
The notebook manufacturer Moleskine has started a martketplace where artists can sell customized Moleskine notebooks. I was honored to get an invitation to be a founding contributor. Here is my page on the ArtMart. I’ve got two books up now with more to come.
A friend helped me make a video that gives a glimpse into the process of making one of the notebook covers. The base design is made in Photoshop and is printed onto Inkpress Adhesive Vinyl. Color is added with watercolor paint, and highlights are added with a white gel pen. I then sprayed the image with Kamar® Varnish which protects it and gives it a uniform surface.
I’ve tried a few different inkjet sticker papers, but the Inkpress is by far my favorite. The vinyl paper doesn’t buckle with the application of water media and the adhesive holds really well.
