Kira's Moly

Sorry guys. It took me forever to finish my entry. There's no excuse. Please forgive me a"a.

After renovating my house, and all the sickness and laziness I have to deal with. I don't have much art supply around the house for me to work with. So I only use water ink pens and permanent pens. I wrote a Chinese translation of Kira's theme of my entry. I hope you will like it.



I also took a picture of Kira's cover because it's really beautiful.


Thanks for a lovely round of moly exchange. It was fun.

Hanna's Moly

Hello everyone! It has been QUITE a while since I've done anything with this group and I am sorry. Life got in the way, as I'm sure all of you understand. Marty has talked about closing down this blog...I think I will have to say I'm done once I get my book back. But I don't even know who has it...I think we all learn from experiences like this. I've learned I'm just not good with group projects...And I have a hard time working in this format (the accordion fold). Again, I'm so sorry if I've disappointed...

I'm sending Hanna's Moly out to her friend in Texas tomorrow as she requested...Here's what I've done:

What makes us brave

It's soon a whole year since I sent my accordion Moleskine out and I haven't received it back with me yet. I am so curious of what it will hold... So party on our one year anniversary for our little exchange? Soon it will be ending, at least for me. This week I've sent out Ronny's book to Hong-Kong and that will be my last entry. Another year would be a stretch for this group I think.



In her book Ronny is asking the question What makes you brave? - another difficult question that I have no answer for, I'm not even sure I am brave... but I did try to portrait my best guess in words and images, a pink art journal entry for bravery and guts.





What makes you brave? Take care and be brave!

Shall we close this account?

Sadly, this group appear dead. I am going to clear it for a new group. Anyone here want to start a new improved group?

Silver lining in the mail

I picked up Kira's beautiful little moly at the post office today. Thanks Dawn for sending it, I enjoyed looking at both your and Kira's pages. :-) Now, I need to ponder what silver lining my dark clouds do bring...


Kira's pages in her own book. Beautiful work.

Kira’s Moly

I'm sending Kira's Moly on to Hanna this week...Then I will work in Ronny's and so on...Not real happy with how this turned out, but here it is:

Dawn is typography to me

This blog has been un-appropriately (!) neglected by all of us during this round-robin moly-exchange-thing. I guess it's because Ronny is sick and both me, Kira and Dawn have very active blogs (and other projects) of our own that takes up a lot of time. The exchange is continuing anyway and books are being filled.



Dawn's book came to visit me here in Sweden in September and it's already with Ronny in Hong-Kong as I write this. I did take pictures before I sent it off and here is the proof of that today. Enjoy and please comment if you visit this blog! Thanks!



When I think of Dawn I think of typography, I guess it's because she uses words and letters so much as her art form in her journals! In the first pages of her own Moly she has written names of countries in different colors and nothing more. It makes a visually interesting spread and I couldn't continue with anything else than, that's right; letters and words.



I choose to cut out words from magazines instead of writing them myself.



I have no idea how I picked out these words. I think I took words that had a nice font, color and/or meaning to them. Words that sounds nice, sat something nice or interesting or is just plain fun to look at!



I have no moly to play in yet so I'll see what happens next!
