Art Journaling

"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being could fight; and keep fighting."
~ E. E. Cummings
Tammy at Daisy Yellow has said it well:
Art journaling is about the creative process of pulling together color, words and images as you wish on a page. Unlike many other forms of art, it is not about the outcome. An art journal is basically a diary, but for artists. The only difference is how you use it. You can use it like a diary every day, like a comic book of your life, things that happened to you, or just do sketches of interesting or memorable moments from your day or week. As you all know by now - I am a BIGTIME fan of Danny Gregory and follow his advice very seriously. In his book “Everyday matters” Danny talks about creative art journaling as a way to reconnect with your inner creative energies. He encourages each one of us to sketch and draw every day. I have been diligently following his advice and have been filling up my journal pages with art, sketches and drawings. Believe it or not guys it is a meditative experience and it has tremendous powers to give you perspective and peace.
