my artist in bloom journal | journal with me ✩ 42

August 14, 2020

Lovelies! I’ve been journaling again!

This month began the brand new season of Get Messy and it’s the Season of Bloom.

If you recall, this was my OLW last year and my extension word for Flourish for this year, so I of course had to dive into this new season.

This season is all about returning to yourself, which I thought was serendipitous as I was just beginning my new journey into creative self portraits and reflective journaling about myself. I was already committing to return to myself. Since I haven’t art journaled in FOREVER, I felt this season came at the right time—the best time for me to dive back into it.

And oh how I’ve missed journaling in this way!

I’ve been using my Artist in Bloom journal for this season. Remember that journal I created exactly a year ago? Well, it’s been sitting quietly on my shelf just waiting to be loved.

To be fair, it was too pretty to use. But I made it and I so desperately wanted to fill it up, so I’ve decided to repurpose it for this project. I ended up redoing a few pages I had already filled in and I even repurposed a few recent pages from my Daybook of Dreams, because I thought they fit better in this little book. I’m really excited to be working in this book. I think it may be challenging for me to work in such a gorgeous book and created messy art in it, but I’ve already instructed myself that I must do it. Even if I create the worst art in it. I must experiment and play. That is the only way to grow—to bloom.

And how perfect that it’s called Artist in Bloom journal?

I swear, it was all made for this exact moment.

I’ve already begun filling it up. I did work with what was already in the journal as best as I could, but I did alter a lot of the pages I had already created. I also created a few new pages too. I managed to film a little process of me creating a white out poem on a page I had already created. I also created a brand new page too. You can watch the process below. I do hope you enjoy and welcome these new journaling pages!

I think I might film an updated “My Current Journals” video just to share them all. I’ve got a few that I don’t think I’ve ever shared before.

It's really amazing to see how much my journaling has changed since I actively started creating and sharing. I'm very much about THE WORDS lately, but I've been itching to begin a journal just about THE ART. 

I treated myself to some new art supplies this past weekend. I'm hoping I can carve out some time to create art again just as I've been creating the time to write it all out.

Maybe I'll have a new art journal to share soon... xx

The nicest things can happen when you let go.

Growth is a series of push and pull, of holding on and letting go.

Still working in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Still working in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. I had so much fun with this color scheme and style that I went ahead and made two matching #littleartnotes! This color combo is super rare for me (Titan Buff and Titan Mars Pale with Payne's Gray marks), but I'm really digging it! 

Happy Friday Loves! xx
When I originally set up these pages in my @getmes When I originally set up these pages in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal, I left a lot of space to write about what blooming means to me. It means growth, blossoming, and becoming. It means to flourish. It also represents nature and the restorative power of being in the wild. 

Bloom means a lot to me and yet while finishing up some of these half-finished pages, I was at a loss for words. This is when I found that word phrase stickers really help get the message across. xx
Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Seas Just another spread in my @getmessyartjournal Season of Bloom art journal. A lot of these pages were already in progress, so it's interesting to see them finished. I'm sure I had other intentions for what they were going to look like a couple of years ago when I first created this journal. Now, I'm content with matching colors, adding paint, and a few scribbles. This journal is all about the process of creating for me now, which I think is still a source of growth. xx
