I love to see my students create their own unique art from the classes I teach, especially with something as personal as art journaling. Come see their pages and feel inspired!

An art journal is so much more than just just a journal. It’s a magical storybook! And its stories don’t have to be complicated or planned at all. They live in your heart and soul already, and are just waiting for an opportunity to be expressed, just like on this journal page.

In this FREE VIDEO I’m sharing all about my favorite art journaling supplies and how to set up your space in a way that’s practical and inspiring. Come watch and enjoy!

I've just been creating my gratitude page for 2022! I do one every December and they always end up being some of my favorite pages, which I love to come back to again and again.

A new page and a new class! What if we filled our art journal with little hiding places: flaps and pockets to hold our dreams, our stories and the secrets of our hearts? What if we gave ourselves the freedom to play, have fun and get messy, while expressing our emotions in the safe space of our journal?

When the world feels dark, my art journal is a safe space to express thoughts and emotions, and find my way back towards the light…

Let’s face it, acrylics are not the most eco-friendly kind of paint, even though they’re completely amazing for mixed media! But we can make small changes and mindful choices to use them in a more sustainable way. Here are my best 5 tips!

This latest page in my art journal took me through quite an emotional journey, helping me process these crazy times, and reminding me that there's only so much we can bring into the world: our gifts, and our heart.⁠
