  • Let’s flip through some of my oldest and most dear to me illustrated journals! My love for journaling began with these notebooks. They are from 2009 and 2017 (in the video I mistakenly think it's from 2016). I just love how much of my life I was able to capture in these sketches, some more crude or rudimentary than others, yet full of memories.
    I hope this video inspires you to pick up a pen and draw in your journals!

    I have been drawing events from my days in a sketchbook these last few weeks..i just drew a scene last night from a few weeks ago, of being on the highway heading to the ranch and we were behind heavy traffic and there was this truck in front of us that had a cow drawn on the rear doors! So I took a photo and then last nightcI drew it. It was also the first day that our usual exit was closed.
    I have also drawn my yoga mat in the park too..

      That sounds like a wonderful way to document your days! Depending on the context, I find that the drawings capture more of the memory than a photo could have. But taking a photo to be able to draw the scene later is so handy!

      That's wonderful! I should draw more horses, there's quite a few around where I live.

    Hi. 👋🏾 I loved so much about these. You are right, about the 2009 shoes: sometimes you can draw something and it provides a memory that words can't. I think I might go back to sketching this coming year, if I can find the time. Very inspiring! 🙂

      Thank you so much for your kind words. Looking back at my journals, I often find the pages that have drawings on them the most meaningful and it doesn't matter if the perspective is wonky or proportions and anatomy are questionable. I hope you can find the time to add a little doodle here and there :)
