art journaling..

You may remember a few months back I was hot and heavy into my art journal and proud to have completed Rhonna Farrer's 21 Day Challenge. I took a break from journaling but lately, I have been so inspired by all of the journal pages I have been seeing around. Then Joleen asked me if I'd be willing to do another issue Portals issue on the topic of art journals and I agreed because it was just what my soul had been needing and I hadn't recognized it. So we have been plotting and outlining and contacting artists. Our top choice for "feautured artist" agreed for us to feature him and we are just beyond excited. After many discussions I decided we needed to do an artist journal RR during the process of creating the new issue so we ran into our respective studios and started playing...

My journal, seen here, will be heading out to Joleen tomorrow and hers will be on the way to me. We both chose the theme "quotes" as the prompts for our pages so I am anxious to find some good ones to inspire more art. What are some of your favorites??

Here is my first page. I am eager to do more. If you have been journaling, please send some of your pages to share to our call for art on the newly updated Portals website.
