Day 23: 28-Days of Art Journaling
After three weeks of art/visual journaling every day I’ve yet to grow tired of it. As a matter of fact, I look forward to it throughout the day. I have developed a daily practice that begins about the time the sun begins to set. It’s my time to play and to explore, to see what…
Day 22: 28-Days of Art Journaling
It’s not just about making decorative pages. It’s about using art to get in touch with ourselves. ~ Lucia Capacchione, Ph.D., from a recorded interview by Suzette Milam-Morrow. You can watch it HERE. The prompt for today’s journal page has been peculating for awhile. It’s about questioning how to reconcile the past with the future,…
Day 21: 28-Days of Art Journaling
After spending the day with my Mom she was on my mind tonight as I began my art journal. It wasn’t until after I had finished the page that I realized the colors I used were red, white and blue, the colors representing the United States. My Mom is very proud of our country and…
Day 20: 28-Days of Art Journaling
It hurts and saddens me when I see people wearing masks to hide their sadness or their grief or to see them wear a mask to hide their happiness or joy out of fear of upsetting others; to see them wearing disguises so they fit in or wearing masks to hide their true selves. Why…
Day 19: 28-Days of Art Journaling

Before I started journaling this evening I finished up all the little odds and ends of the day and then took a few minutes to just sit quietly, breathe and relax. The…
Day 18: 28-Days of Art Journaling
Tonight, although exhausted, I kept my commitment and created a new art journal page. Art journaling doesn’t always have to be introspective, about asking questions or about seeking answers. It can simply be a way to remember a special event. Tonight’s page was about celebrating. You see, it’s been months since my Rav4 died and…

Day 16: 28-Days of Art Journaling
Yesterday’s journal question was still with me today so I again allowed my intuition to guide me to answer the question “What am I seeking?” Day 16… Related Links: Day 1 – What this 28-day project is all about and why I started it. Day 2 – Resistance: What’s stopping me? Day 3 – Letting…
Day 15: 28-Days of Art Journaling
I had a rare, full day to myself today. It was also 102 degrees outside so I had a great excuse to just hang it in the house all day. I did a little reading, talked to some friends, did a little journaling (the old-fashion pen and paper way) and spent some time in quiet…
