31 Art Journals - Day 4




Welcome to Day 4.  Slightly later than I had hoped but better late than never.

This journal is the one I call my John Lewis Journal, because it started its life out as a John Lewis Catalog :)

I started it because I needed something to travel with when I was staying at my mums who I was looking after and just needed a break, without taking loads of supplies



I would use the catalog images along with gesso and red and blue and I would mask out some of the home and decor images and challenge myself by adding new ones.  I would mostly add people and try and integrate them within the space and let them tell a story.



As a carer it was great to use this journal in a way that would give me some time to myself, and it is important as a carer that you identify something that you can do even do for 10-15 minutes


That again is the great thing about creating in an art journal, and to make it your own, what you need at the time rather than what you feel that others are doing.


I have completed some of the pages, others I keep it for when I want to create a particular scene on the pages


Check out the video to see some more of the pages and think about what you can do in your own journal adventure.



Day 1 - 3
If you haven't had a chance to check out the other journals







Stay blessed and be a blessing, and come back tomorrow.
