paper is forgiving | journal with me ✩ 44

August 24, 2020

Hey Lovelies! I’ve got another journal spread in my artist in bloom journal for the Get Messy Season of Bloom that I want to share. This one was quite a process to create.

If there is one thing I’ve learned through art journaling, it’s that paper is quite forgiving. Sure it’s rather delicate too and can easily tear, but the magic of it is that you can always add something to it to make it right again. It will be different, but it would look closer to something you had intended.

I did a lot of painting and repainting and covering up on this spread. My initial idea did not go as planned, but there’s nothing a little white gesso can’t fix!

My spread could’ve turned out a lot better—or at least closer to what I had originally imagined—but I’m pleased at how much I was able to “fix” it to get it looking like something I like.

Anyway, I filmed my process for you, which you can watch below. I do hope you enjoy!

My current journal stack. I think I might film an My current journal stack.

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
