I just saw this photo on Mary Ann’s blog. I am struck with lust so severe I’m not sure how I’ll make it through the day. What an awesome way to store flat collage ephemera. Everything is organized, kept flat, and the whole thing is just so pretty. I’m not usually one who gets worked [...]
Once again I was able to convince myself to make some time for playing in my art journal and I’m really glad I did. Doing it during quiet time helps me feel less lonely since I can hear the kids in their rooms playing and today my love was in the room with me taking [...]
I’ve been giving some thought to other things I’d like to accomplish this year. I wrote the first things that came to mind in my art journal, but as I thought about it more, I realized that there are still things I think need some improvement in my life. Here’s a longer list (the journaled [...]

I am always inspired by the work of Teesha Moore. I’m not sure who can look at her work and not want to attempt to play with her techniques. Especially with her YouTube videos out there explaining all the different steps she takes. So this was my TM inspired page. My thoughts? I liked making [...]
Yesterday I talked a little bit about images and themes that reoccur in my art journal. It was an interesting exercise and I’ll probably do it again in the future to see if anything has changed with time. One thing I mentioned was the way I do backgrounds. It’s almost always the same process for [...]
I was reading my feeds yesterday and saw that Kelly Kilmer wrote an interesting blog about creating a visual vocabulary, which is to say, coming up with colors and images that are representative of you, your emotions, and your life. I have also heard these reoccurring themes referred to as a motif. Whatever you want [...]
