    Really turning out so cool!! I like how dark it is too! I think the sisters also catch hell about their art not being girly enough, not pink & frilly enough. But they're determined to be true to what they really feel!
    TFS Barbara! ❤❤

    Im going to be sad when you finish it. I'm enjoying the unfolding of this journal along with the stories you make up to go with it. It just brings it to life. I really don't know how you do it. I get so much inspiration from your videos for my own journals. Can't wait for Dephemerember 😊💙💛

    Your journal could almost be about the lives of Harriet & Helena Scott. Two incredible Australian artist sisters who lived in the 1800’s & managed to not only get recognition & make a life as artists, but were even recognised by scientific societies for their incredibly detailed & realistic paintings of butterflies & botany. “Harriet and Helena Scott: their life and works
    Uncover the captivating story of these two extraordinary women whose love of nature and tremendous skill in rendering its beauty enabled them to distinguish themselves amid the male-dominated world of 19th century science. Harriet and Helena Scott entered the masculine world of science and became possibly the first professional female illustrators in the country. They were also accomplished amateur naturalists and collectors, at a time when women were unable to pursue careers in these fields. Many of their scientific illustrations are still used by scientists today.
    The Scott sisters were among the first to illustrate the life histories and immature stages of Australian moths and butterflies. They were meticulous and understood the biology of their subjects in great detail.
    By 1864, the sisters had completed spectacular drawings of moths and butterflies for the publication of the first volume of AW (Walker) Scott’s Australian Lepidoptera and Their Transformations.
    When the prominent natural historian William Swainson had reviewed this emerging work over a decade earlier, he enthused in the Sydney Morning Herald, ‘... these drawings are equal to any I have ever seen by modern artists … every tuft of hair in the caterpillar, the silken webs of the cocoon, or the delicate and often intricate pencillings on the wings of a moth, stand out with a prominence of relief which it is perfectly impossible to reproduce by simple water colours …’.
    The brilliance of those colours and intricacy of detail - from the first, tiny, observational drawings produced by Scott and his daughters, to the final 100 watercolour plates designed for translation onto the lithographic stone - are just as startling today.
    Purchased by the Museum for 200 pounds in 1884, this collection serves as an important historical resource and also illustrates the fascinating story of these two impressive naturalists and their artistic achievements.
    The meticulous diaries and notebooks kept by the sisters, part of the Museum collection, provide a glimpse into their scientific activities. Working with their father, the sisters collected live specimens from the surrounding countryside, located the right plant materials for feeding and raising their hungry subjects, and then corresponded with scientists to aid in the identification and description of some of the more puzzling species.
    Walker Scott publicly acknowledged their entomological achievements and emphasised that the painstaking execution of the final life-sized drawings of moths and butterflies in various stages of their life cycles was all the work of his ‘clever daughters’.
    In 1868, as further recognition of their work, Harriet and Helena were elected honorary members of the Entomological Society of NSW - a rare distinction for women at the time.”
    From an article on the sisters by the Australian Museum

    • @allisonjames2923
      @allisonjames2923 Рік тому

      Hey Barbara. There is another article on the sisters on a resource called “untold stories” which sounds like exactly the kind of thing you’d love, since it “honours individuals whose contribution to exploration, discovery & the natural world are largely untold”

      Hi fellow Aussie. Have you heard of Harriet & Helena Scott? Two Australian artist sisters who were the most amazing botanical artists who captured detailed paintings of flowers & butterflies. Pretty sure they knew the artist sisters in this journal 😋

    I love this grungy Journal. Love when we get to watch you flip through the pages (of any Journal). It’s so interesting to hear the stories you come up with to go into your Journal. Every page starts meaning more when we hear how they all connect. I bought this digital kit. So I loved watching you cut into certain pages. How you use them, change them from a flat page to pockets, coin envelopes, tuck spots. Etc. and I know nothing gets thrown away. Left over pieces become collage fodder. But seeing you cut into the pages gives me “permission” to cut into them too. Can’t wait to see how these signatures get sewn in or glued down or however they get attached to the cover! Can’t wait till next Sunday.

    Numbers as tuck spots? Brilliantly different, love that! I do not have exactly those numbers, but I’ll trace some free ones on my screen and cut them out of painty papers backed with packaging. And I will use 2 numbers instead of just one for stability. And this inspired me to have something similar on the cover. Removable ‘book plate’ is cool idea (I like portable & non-committal better than built-in and dedicated). Thanks for ideas!

    Oh Barbara... I just love your story telling as you create this incredible journal. ❤ I often tell myself 'stories' as I create, especially if it is a themed work, and/or for someone else. I'm working on one such project now, and I 'talk' to the person who will eventually own the journal with every piece that I add. When I'm finished, making a journal following this series is my next 'mission', so I'm going to be sad when you post the final video, but excited that I can revisit, and make 'one of my own'. 🧡💚🤎
