More Journal Evolution


The medium size journal is from 2003. The large one is from 2005. The small one is 2009. A history of paint, collage, journaling, and just simple self expression. I used more paint back then and I liked to stick three dimensional stuff on the pages in the early 2000's. 

I wrote in my journal the other day that I'm right where I need to be. I have never felt more fulfilled with my art making than I have since I took up collage (my passion has grown even deeper over the years.) I have often said that while I am an experienced teacher, at the same time I am still a student. There is always something new to learn. I'm still finding my place with collage (as well as myself) and I am eager to see how far I can push it.

Because of your recent posts, I have now gone back through my history of journaling - about 5 years. I too have evolved. I did my first art journal with you and was so compelled by the journey I filled in every page!! Now, I find that my pages are more open and my thoughts are more on the surface than ever. Now that I am actually writing in my journal, my work has really changed. I am so grateful for the opportunities that my art has provided. I love the fact that even after 5 years, there is always something new to learn. Your blog and classes are my window into what is new and how to change and how to allow myself evolve.
