In this video, "How My Mixed Media Journal Changed My Artistic Journey," I share how creating a mixed-media journal helped me tackle the chaos of materials and ideas. By organizing my explorations of mixed media techniques, I’ve made it easier to keep track of my inspirations, ensuring I never lack ideas for art journaling pages, lessons, TH-cam videos, and future projects.
I’ll show you how my journal serves as a toolkit for:
Staying Organized: Documenting techniques and ideas as they come.
Finding Inspiration: Using my journal to spark new ideas.
Experimenting Freely: Trying new techniques without fear.
Connecting with Nature: Incorporating natural elements into my art.
Join me for a flip-through of my journal and discover how it can help you in your art practice!
