Hey guys! In today’s Nameless episode I wanted to talk about following our intuition while art journaling.
This basically means learning to trust and follow through with our impulses while creating; putting them ahead of critical judgement.
Whilst being intuitive you will still obviously think about, and be mindful of what you are doing, and how you are doing it, but you are able to put your critiques aside to see where it takes you without worry, pressure or expectation.
This is something that can take some practice, but is really fulfilling because it takes you back to the joy of the process itself, and welcomes the surprise and mysteries that can occur while making art and following your impulse without knowing where it is going to take you.
I wanted to talk about this first to hopefully ease any anxieties or overthinking during this project; because it’s really easy to get stuck on composition and perfectionism while making anything!
But by trusting and welcoming intuitive, impulsive ideas and feelings we invite a more joyful process and open ourselves up to more unique, spontaneous outcomes.

When I was young (between 10 and 20 years) I used to junk journal and sketch a lot but the following years, due to life's difficulties, I forgot all about it. I did this without even knowing that there was a term for it. Seeing this video reminded me how therapeutic this process is and that I really did use my intuition, I did not think, I did not plan, I did not test.... it was as if my hands had a life of their own. Thank you so much for reminding me how calm it made me feel.......I just hope life lets me feel that way again. Be well.
Johanna, I just wanted to let you know that I am loving this tutorial and am working along with you each week. My journal isn't nameless though. After making the cover I discovered a box of old photos of my husbands family. I asked him if I could have them for journaling and am now using your journal to make a surprise birthday gift for him using your tutorial each week. Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial.
I am also using family photos but they are photos of my grandparents, great aunts & uncles, and my parents with friends or extended family members I never knew. In that sense they are sort of nameless. I wanted to share these so my grandchildren would have a sense of history within the family. Loads of photos of my great-uncles with their buddies during WWII.

All the love from another youtuber🌹
Going to check out your channel now girl 👀 ♥️
I so understand the feeling of not trusting what to do or where to start so I really appreciate you doing this video...thank you!
You're explanation was so helpful, I feel that I do this in my art journaling but then doubt it all when others feel they need to be an art critic, I journal to make me happy and never profess to being an 'artist'. Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed this youtube.
Love this series Johanna, it's great just to let go and create something very freeing about it. Hugs Susanna xx
Everything you touch turns out just beautiful. Love this series.
Ur voice is so calm..wanna always listen to it..iam new to Ur channel! It's awesome! Love Ur vintage looks in Ur journals ..love Ur channel ...😘😘😘
You are totally right in what you say. It is so hard to do, though! Thank you for your words and the beautiful spread.
So happy I found this series😮 I’m binge watching then I think I will create and follow this series…beautiful idea to treasure lost or forgotten /nameless photos ❤
I'm so happy to find this. I love to create and I'm the family genealogist, so I have lots of pictures. This is what I was looking for. Thank you so much.
I also love vintage photos!!!!
Love your sweet voice!!!
Feelings are easy for me I get hung up with purpose. So thank you for sharing that it's ok to create for creating a sake. I'm gonna go play with that in mind today. I am really enjoying this series. Thank you so much!
That’s so true! Absolutely it’s okay to create just for the sake of it!!! ♥️
Beautifully done!!!
Wonderful tips on being intuitive. Loved watching you create 🖤
Johanna I love all you do! This is beautiful!! PS. You’re voice is so relaxing to listen to....
Johanna you make this look so easy and your journaling so brilliant I love it
Loved your talk about intuition. I have a hard time getting rid of the critical judgement in my work, but I will definitely try this process. Love how your page came out. Tfs
I totally get what you are saying! It feels so good to journal this way. I have learned to embrace and love it❤️! Thank you for sharing. Your page looked awesome for that photo.
This is another gorgeous creation.
I love learning from you. Youve so much to offer. Thank you. 👌😄
What a nice lesson. Put feelings into explanation is so hard for me! Thank U ♥️
Wunderschön ! Habe a nice Day
Love your content, glad I'm here for it! 👏
This intuitive journaling is very freeing and inspirational. Your voice is calm and encouraging and gives people the courage to try this out I believe. Thank you.
Inspired by ur work..im making a timeline sort of journal..filled with memories for my boyfriend as a gift..😊thank you for sharing ur work n giving us inspiration
You explained it perfectly. I love this video. I needed this. I been so blocked. Tfs❤
Beautiful and inspiring as always Johanna, thankyou. It’s been so good for me to follow this unique series because for as long as I can remember I’ve been an over thinker. My husband found a tin of photos at a market recently which would be perfect for the ‘Nameless’ project so I truly hope to try it in the future. I struggle with getting past the feeling of wondering why family pictures were given away in the first place and of wanting to find the original owners of discarded treasures just in case they were thrown out by accident. A near impossible task of course. It’s wonderful to see you using these historical gems that otherwise would have ended up in landfill. Instead they found their way into the best and most creative of hands and warmest of hearts ♥️
You are amazing!! ♥️
Thanks for sharing! 😊❤️

"Purely". So true, a great word for it. Enjoyable video and actually so nice to see you using paint again. I remember when I first found you years ago you were including paints a lot. Would be lovely to see more of that if possible :)
wowww,so amazing
Beautiful”.💜
Nicely done,tfs
Its so beautifulll
Yikes... I find the idea of creating like this very confronting, but I can really see the value of being able to do it. Perhaps in time... . Thanks for your encouragement.
Beautiful
Could you do A video where you show how you organize you crafts? I really struggle to keep every clip-offs and paper in general somewhat tidy and organized 💫
Hope you don't mind if I answer too :) She has a few videos of craft room tours which show her storage if you want to check them out. I have folders for pics of different subjects eg people, animals, floral, etc. I have a box for scraps, containers for ephemera, ribbons, sewing, cards, drawers for paper, maps, music, etc, and then the stuff I use most - tools - close to hand. Hope this helps just a bit. Nothing fancy :)
Ellie L hi Ellie, yes I do have a few craft tours! Not much has changed since my latest 😊♥️
Thanks for another video! It is hard to follow your feelings and just go for it... the result always worries me. I guess I can give it a shot. Beautiful! Thanks a lot. ❤
It helps if you do it regularly rather than every now and then. You kind get in the flow and caring how it turns out eventually goes out the window :)
Hey Johanna, love this journaling series and have been following, it's coming along well! I do have feedback concerning the audio, please could you make it louder/ project more, it is a bit difficult to hear the vids at times. Great video tho 👍
Sorry Mich, some of these videos are pre-recorded so I can only try to enhance the audio during editing (which I will do my best next time!) and in future will keep a note of that. Sometimes I do voiceovers with a sleeping baby near by so I think that may be why my voice is so low 😅♥️
@@JohannaClough thanks for the response❤
That would be great, I have my volume at full to watch and hear.
Thank you for the inspiration! Can you also tell us where you got your prints?
What is the black stuff that you used at 4:07? I really like the aging effect it had on the page.
FIRST X
Stapling your photo image - Was this because of the inscription on the back ?
I'm so jelous that you can just DO things whitout thinking and it turns out so good! for me I'm just overthinking and thinks like what if this gets ulgy? Why if I do something wrong? And so on!
:/ So I'm too scarred to try bc I don't want to do something ugly !
If it's ugly you can throw it away and retry. But in my opinion it's impossible to make something ugly... Remember when you started writing. It's a process, the most of us start with "ugly" art things.. :)
Try it! Believe in you! And if it helps you, don't show it to anyone.
Try! :)
If it's ugly you can always put something else on top that you like or gesso to fade the background and start again on top. And honestly the more you do it the easier it gets I've found :)
Floraviolin just keep adding layers until you like it! And who cares if it’s ugly, it’s practice toward your next one 💕
Im just in love with u
