an art journal of mine own

It's been awhile.

How are you dear ones?

I hope and pray that you are all well and able to enjoy this Beautiful Autumn...

As a start, and since I seem to already be on the subject of Art Journals....

Here is my own.

I simply could not bring myself to make a mark inside this book. It was too beautiful.

However... (after several years.. literally) I finally got up the courage (and inspiration) to make something even more beautiful than a blank book.... I made an Art Journal.

Oddly enough... The journal is the same as my sister Genevieve's. We both got one from Mom and both couldn't bring ourselves to use it. And After Gen decided to make it into an Art Journal, well... I decided to do the same. So.. not very original, but very inspired! :)

It started out with just my favorite verses...
Then I decided to add sketches and poetry and whatever else I felt like doing...

 In in you may find leaves, feathers, dried grass, and little things of beauty.

My sandalwood colored pencils and current read are close at hand...  

And I always keep my best source of inspiration nearby...

The most wonderful thing about this book is... 

I get to put anything I want in it. Every good and beautiful thing!

Do you have an art journal? If so, I'd love to hear, or especially see, what you like to put in it!

All my love,

Margo
