I have a really hard time with blank art journals. The pressure of that first blank page is very daunting. What should I put there? Whatever it is, it should be really great. Silly, I know…
After hopping around from web page to web page, I stumbled upon this quote by Keri Smith. I new right away that it should be the first page. I also new that OPEN was going to be my word of the year. I didn’t want it–didn’t seem fancy enough, but it has been following me everywhere!
Then, I wrote the following in my calender book today and that made it official:
“I am keeping myself wide OPEN for new adventures, friendships, creative energy and courageous spirit. “
Things to check out….
* This Mission: ATM now stands for Always Trust Magic
* Weekly art prompts at Art House
Cool. That’s a welcoming word. My word this year is “focus.” I just started practicing yoga again and I am trying to appreciate being in the moment, all of my moments, every single one. Looking forward to seeing where your word leads you this year, 🙂
Wonderful word! I love the quote in your journal too-have fun!!
Great word and quote. I wanted to tell you how great it was to see your you tube video. You did wonderful on Martha! I was so excited watching it!
I know you have a list of tutorials. Would you please add mine to the list? I want people to get some use out of it. Thanks!
