Folder for a Friend

I made this folder for a creative friend that has the same problem that I have... That is difficulty in drawing in a book, or painting on a large piece of paper - the fear of "wrecking it" makes it difficult or even impossible to be free to create and enjoy.


And so I created this folder (decorated with stitching!) for her...


Inside is small pieces of different weights of paper - to be drawn on or painted on whenever she wishes. And if she doesn't like what she has done, it can be thrown away, or kept in this folder -only sharing it if she wants. There is no fear of "wrecking" something, and drawings or paintings can be kept in the folder, or even glued into a book if wanted. It makes creating more safe - no worries - keep it or not, share it or not it is her choice.


Here is my folder with a few pen drawn images that have stayed in my folder.
