@gingerw Art Journaling - I happen to run across this topic of art journaling for beginners that I found on YouTube and some groups on Facebook. It looked interesting and it reminded me of collage which I did enjoy. I had about half of the suggested art supplies and ordered the rest in an attempt to try this type of journaling. I didn't know how to share these links so I'm sharing where one can possibly locate it on this thread.

@marjou Absolutely! Art journaling is yet another way to express what is going on inside of you, and what makes us "tick". Don't believe that it is only a creative or artistic person who can pull this off. Don't believe you have to have "this tool or supply" Again, pen, paper, or colored pencils, glue, a stack of magazines, postcards, whatever you may have laying around. And remember, school supplies are plentiful in stores right now. Ooooh, construction paper, paints, glue, you get the picture. gosh, this makes me wanna head back to the store ;))

@artscaping, this is a great companion activity to regular journaling, and can even be used in situations where two or more people are dealing with things together. Sometimes "only words" doesn't get our thoughts out like we want!
