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!

Comment by Malie Smith on November 9, 2009 at 5:38pm: 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!

Comment by Jane Clark on October 6, 2009 at 8:38am: 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?

Comment by RFasig on September 13, 2009 at 8:49pm: 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.

Comment by Michelle Nicole on August 19, 2009 at 8:18pm: I recently bought the book Creative Awakenings and it seems like it's going to be awesome!

Comment by Donna on March 12, 2009 at 10:20am: Good luck! Although after looking at your sample pages I don't think you need any luck.

Comment by Robinsunne on March 12, 2009 at 6:41am: 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
