Rooted Afrocentric Spiral Notebook | Mixed Media Art Journal, Ruled 6"x8"

This spiral notebook brings a bold, earthy energy to everyday writing. The front cover's layered mixed media collage—organic shapes, textured greens and blues, and a grounding "ROOTED" band—invites slow thinking, sketching, and list-making. Original artwork by Antionette Simmons Hodges combines acrylics, fabric, and paper to create rich, tactile depth.

Inside, ruled pages on 90gsm paper take ink and pencil without feathering, and a metal spiral lets the book lie flat or fold back for comfortable one-handed notes. A discreet document pocket on the inside back cover tucks receipts, tickets, or clippings, keeping your pages tidy. At 6" x 8", it's compact enough for a tote or backpack yet roomy for journaling, class notes, or project planning.

This Afrocentric journal feels at home in studios, cafés, and nature walks—somewhere between creative practice and daily organization. The "ROOTED" message reminds you to stay grounded in heritage, values, and authentic self while reaching toward growth.
