Journal: By Alex Foster Medium(s): Acrylic paint, ink, colored pencils, some ephemera Status: Complete Notes: I received the journal from Well Inked Box (art subscription box) in March 2018 when I was one of their ambassadors. The pages were pretty thin, so I had to double them up. I also had to reinforce the journal by binding the spine with waxed thread since it started falling apart towards the end.
