The Art of Gratitude

The LAST PAGE of my Art Journal is all about Gratitude and I’m sharing it all on VIDEO! Including a lovely little ritual to close the past year and welcome the new one. Join me in the studio!

In the Secret Garden

I like to think of my art journal as a “secret garden” where I can play like a kid and where my soul can bloom… Come join me in this magical place and see this new page evolve.

Emotions Rising & Falling

Emotions rising & falling… just like the birds in the sky or the ebb and flow of water. An art journal is such a special, intimate space to express and honor emotions.

Spirit of Amethyst

What started with a big blob of leftover purple paint ended up with an Amethyst-inspired fairy. My art journal never ceases to surprise me…

A Soul Dreams

Following the breadcrumbs of inspiration and the serendipity of found poetry, today’s journal page is all about dreams, shadow and light.

Dare to bloom

I’m half-way through my Art Journaling Challenge, Yay! Come and discover today’s page on the blog: it’s all about growing and blooming!

Into the Unknown

This new page in my journal is all about listening to the little voice calling us from within and following its light with trust towards bigger dreams.

Creative Starting Points

What if my art journal didn’t have a single blank page left? I’m sharing photos and a video of this next step in my art journaling challenge!

Where Lost Thoughts Go

An art journal is a place where every thought and emotion is allowed. Here is a new, slightly moody and nostalgic page, the third one in my art journaling challenge…

Wisdom of the Woods

There’s always something so heart-warming and cosy this time of year. Something poetic that invites you to tune within, reconnect to yourself and to the natural world…

Art Journal Magic

There is more to art journaling than you might think… When creating dreams on the page with paper and paint leads to dreams coming true “for real”, it’s time to open up to the magic!

In the Flow

Just as the river does, our emotions flow and carry us through life in unique and sometimes unexpected ways: What if we let ourselves be guided by them? What if we trusted ourselves enough to dive under the sparkly surface and find out what wisdom awaits us there? What if we let go of resistance and simply embraced the flow?

Gratitude & New Beginnings

Today I’m sharing a page from my journal that speaks of embracing the flow of life, letting go and welcoming new beginnings. Our wings are ready to lift us up towards the light, if we trust them and follow our heart.

A place for stories

Sometimes we hold stories in our heart that beg for a place to be told, even though they don’t seem to make much sense… and sometimes they bring the most beautiful, unexpected gifts…

Fly Home

Today I’m looking back at another page from my art journal. This one speaks to me of Joy, of Freedom, of being Brave and allowing ourselves to feel Safe and Supported. Connecting to the feeling of Home inside of us and opening our wings with full Trust!
