It has been awhile since I have gotten really creative and super messy with paper, ink & paint so with a open weekend coming up that is supposed to be FULL of RAIN, I am preparing to start the beginnning of incorporating my 2012 word PRACTICE
with several techniques that I love, to create a new art journal.
As I have become more intentonal with the things I do, the process of creating this journal is going to include me practicing the following ideas, purposes, feelings and emotions:
P - purpose;process;practice
R - relax;relish;remember
A - adventure;artful
C - challenge;commit;cultivate;create
T - transformation;time;together
I - improve;imagine;inspire
C - choices;changes;color
E - embrace;emerge;enjoy
I hope that this idea sparks something inside you to practice something today.















I love this Stephanie, great work!
