By January of 2022, I was keeping detailed journals of my ATC trading. Perhaps TOO detailed? Here are some pages from the January 2022 Art Journal:

Cards #1426-1467.
I joined a "Challenge ATART" and I think I completed every challenge. A lot of cards were made... but quite a few of them were very bad. In the journal, I recorded a day-to-day description of the event, which seemed important at the time.

I was totally delighted with these cards for a swap on ATCsForAll.com: I made single-celled creatures in a single cell of a spreadsheet!
