Hello friends,
Today, we are kicking off a new Art Journaling Series on the channel. I am feeling a deep hearts’ pull to return to the healing expression of art journaling. There is something very healing and transformative when I mix media and get messy. I feel compelled to reach deeper and tend to deeper reservoirs of emotion and creativity. I am excited about this new part of the journal on the channel.
I did do the construction of the art journal off camera, as I had no power for the day that I was set to make this. On video, I will talk to you about how I made the journal, including dimensions and signatures. We will also collage both, the inside and the outside of the cover. We will be decorating the cover as well on camera another day.
I wanted to be certain that we had a base of paper before we start working in the journal itself. I hope you will check back for the first journal page which will be my Sunday’s ART of Truth for Sunday, January 1st.
I hope you enjoy!
