It's been therapeutic to work in my art journal again. I don't do it often, so when I do, I like to prepare a couple of painted pages in advance for when the mood does strike. Working in it reminded me just how much I love it and how therapeutic it is for my emotional well being to do it though.
Here are a couple of pages I have done. I think I like this form of keeping a visual diary because
sometimes images and the process of being creative are expressive enough in itself without lending to the form of words. Sometimes writing in my journal ( I keep both) can be tiring and draining.
But keeping an art journal, I can still put down my feelings and thoughts sometimes without much effort and also without having to spell out what it is I am saying, I know and that is all that matters.
{Plus it's a great excuse to cut, paste and paint!}
I also did a small acrylic painting the other day...
It turned out quite silly, but it was fun nonetheless.
Anyway hoping you have a great weekend!
May it be filled with sunshine and creativity!!!

Love your art journal pages Bonnie...like you I always enjoy them and just don't work in them often enough! Like all of the other things we enjoy...reading for one...just not enough time or perhaps we just don't make them our priority enough. That and there is just so many fun things to do that we just can't do it all...but sure am going to have fun trying. Have a wonderful weekend, fondly, Roberta
Hi... new to your blog. I had a friend tell me about it. She thought it was my blog because we have made some of the same projects. Great Bonnie's think alike! Have a great day!
