Wild and Free Art Journaling

I am so excited to announce the opening of registration for my latest online class, Wild and Free Art Journaling! Woohoo!

We are going to dive into a pool of freedom and have fun in our visual journals. We are going to talk about how rituals and artistic mantras can help break down those barriers....you know the ones...when you are wanting to be creative, but you get stuck? Or your monkey mind starts yelling things at you? Or that blank page just feels way too blank!? Holy Blank-ness! That's intimidating! 

I get it.

I've been there. 

I'm there EVERY SINGLE TIME I show up at my journal.

Whether you've been art journaling for a while, or you have just been curious about what this whole art journaling thing is, this will be a great course for you. 

Here is the link to clear instructions on signing up. It's an online class, opening May 16th, and it will have over 4 hours of rad journaling videos.

Join me. :)

What do you need today?

Just a gentle reminder to check in with yourself today. It's so good to stop and pay attention, isn't it?

art journaling practice

I have a daily art journaling practice...it is how I take care of myself...a tool to be here, now, in the present moment. Everyone needs to find their own soulful life guidelines. Can you do something good for your soul today. What fills you up? What makes you happy? What gets you excited for tomorrow? Follow the magic and see where it takes you. :)

Go Broncos!

Be Certain

Don't miss a wonderful workshop this Saturday the 23rd (1-4:30pm) at the Lifetime Fitness in Colorado Springs, Mats and Brushes...yoga, art journaling, and meditation. Call 719-266-9900 and ask for the activity desk. You do not need to be a member to sign up for the class. 

Here is my art journal pages from today, inspired by a quote from Brian Andreas...

"One day, you just decide to be certain (which is not the same as knowing everything). Decide that what you know is exactly what you need to know & then you start. Whatever it is, start & be certain you'll learn as you go. People act like certainty is an illusion. It's not. It's a choice & it changes your whole life. "

art journal happenings :)

My art journal today...appreciating winter's quiet growth. :)

And Paint Your Story is happening in just one week on the 18th. Woohoo! I am a guest artist in the class and show you start to finish how I work through my stories on a page with paint and markings. Stylistically, I am pretty different than the teacher, Jeanne, but it's not about style is it? Art journaling is about telling YOUR story in any way that feels truthful to you. What a great thing!

Snowy family shoot

I love when families take the time to do pictures during the holidays! SO fun!!! 

Here's a little sneak peek of one of my shoots from over the Christmas break. 

Engagement sneak peek

This was the COLDEST session...and when I say cold, I mean see-your-breath and say-goodbye-to-any-feeling-in-your-lips-and-fingers kind of cold. But Kamiko and Blake were complete troopers and warmed up the whole location with their sweetness and laughter. I can't wait for your wedding!
