We all know that feeling of crippling boredom when, during class or some important meeting, our pen wanders the page creating meaningless scribbles and doodles. But sometimes, we manage to create something really impressive and cool with those doodles, like these fun drawings that use the lines on their pages to create clever drawings.
The notebook plays an important role in our lives especially throughout our school and college going days. What is more with the entry of electronic notebooks, the role of the notebook continued to grow enough to include part of work lives. We often use the note book to make notes, write down important facts, add up figures and many other things. But have you thought about the between the gaps notebook art that can be inspirational for hidden artists? Yes, paper has a lot more to offer to art than just being a surface on which to draw. There have been many examples of that like attractive ornaments from paper. But that is just one form of art using paper; there have been others like paper cut out art -using paper to create sculpture like effect, among many other art forms using paper.
Jose Naranja, a self-described “notebookmaker,” creates works of art out of the typical writing pad. He sells these notes in the form of “The Orange Manuscript,” an elaborate, multilingual exploration of the writer/artist’s mind and observations. The artist considers the work “a love letter to notebooks, a flight of fancy and also a part of me.”
