Artist Painted In Notebook To Document Entire Two-Years Of Travel, The Result Is Amazing

#1

In 2013, Missy Dunaway left her home in Maryland, USA to study art in Turkey. The next two-years turned into a whirlwind of good times, new friends, and life-changing experiences.

Dunaway has always kept a written diary, but her trip of a lifetime sparked something new in her. Instead of relying on the written word to document her travels, Dunaway decided to paint her experiences in a Moleskine notebook.

The artist writes, "I used to keep a written diary, but began recording my days by painting in a Moleskine sketchbook with acrylic ink. My medium is portable, so I was able to pack up my art supplies and continue travelling."

Over time her notebook expanded with more and more landscape paintings, highlighting Dunaway's favorite sights throughout New York, Istanbul, central Turkey, Moroccan Sahara and Paris. Take a peek through the stunning pages of her simple Moleskine notebooks
