Welcome!


Creative art journaling has been a very healing experience for me and I know it is helping others. In this group, I'd like to explore this idea with others who have discovered this and with those who are curious. Please feel free to add pics and tips, but especially any stories of how this is helping, inspiring or healing for you.

Thank you...and welcome!

Hi. I am primarily an artist in hand made felt, but I have used free weaving, knitting, and embroidery in my pieces also. I have never done any art journaling but I hope that this group will be an inspiration!

Hello everyone, Since September I have used my journal sketchbook pages to inspire and continue work into other medias. Is anyone else using their pages to continue into larger pieces?

Hello from a Newbe Mixed Media "Artist" in NW Ohio! I have used journals for writing since I was very young and I love using a journal now for expressing my thoughts, feelings, etc. with mixed media.

I recently bought the book Creative Awakenings and it seems like it's going to be awesome!

Good luck! Although after looking at your sample pages I don't think you need any luck.

I am teaching a short Artist Journal class at our local library - you know what they say: "teach what you want to learn." So, though I have been a diarist since I was about 12, I am now going to go get artsy. Wish me, and my class luck!

Oh! I am taking ideas from Traci Bautista, Linda Woods and a bunch of my Cloth, Paper Scissors mags. It has been fun making the sample pages. A tiny bit is up on my blog: http://sunnespot.blogspot.com
