Art Journal cover |
Inside of my journal is filled with journaling prompts Melody has provided throughout the class. These are helping me with all aspects of my life. I have always believed in the power of the written word.
Because of this course I now believe when you mix pictures and paint and glue with words...WOW! That's when the miracles happen. I know that sounds kind of crazy...but it is soooo TRUE!

A letter I wrote to my "Weak Self" |
Speaking of that...one of my January goals was to Art Journal daily. Not only did I succeed but have now made that one of my goals for the year!!
Okay...let's get to our WORD of the Week.
This week I am kicking the
Word of the Week up a notch. Not only will we focus
on trying
our best to live the WORD but I challenge
you to create something using the WORD!!
You can use artist trading cards, Art Journals,
scrapbook pages, anything you can think up!!
I will be posting my WORD of the Week projects
by the following Monday.
I hope you'll play along!!!
Oh and NO pressure! Don't feel like you have to do this every week. Just play along when a WORD really "speaks" to you!!!! Here is our WORD this week!!
Got that? TRY.
As in
TRY to be enough
TRY something new
TRY to do your best
TRY a new food
TRY not to be so hard on yourself
TRY:)
What do you think about Art Journals? Do you use them? Do you want to TRY one?
Your art is awesome!! I think I would really enjoy art journaling, but Im a little stuck as where to start. But I am going to TRY to play along in March. I have always wanted to do the brave girl thing, so I hope its as great for you as it sounds.
ReplyDeleteLove your word this week too. I am going to TRY to get done all that I need to get done this week. And TRY to be positive about it too. :)

ReplyDeleteThat looks like an amazing course! I love art journaling, but I have to admit, I haven't used it for healing, but that would be a great goal/journey for me! Looking forward to March! :-)
