Art Journal Flip Through - Restoration Art Journal
Join me as I flip through my Restoration Art Journal, it is a great space to not only journal but to paint, I love combining both and also use it to work on future ideas.
It is a recycled prospectus art journal that I have repurposed and it has been collaged and embellishments placed on it.
You can also check out some of my art designs that you can now get printed on dresses. It is a lovely style dress and is perfect as we welcome in the warmer weather. You can see more designs HERE

Creating in Faith - Stillness
Think about what the word 'Stillness' means to you, and how it manifests for you in your day to day.
This episode is about how we go about having some stillness in our lives and find those moments where we can focus on the things that need to be done. We have to also think about how we are going to use if for our benefit and navigate our creative walk.
Stillness brings calm, healing and nurturing enabling us to clarify things that may have been on our minds
What does the word bring up for you, and when was the last time you took some time out to be still?

100 Day Project - What will you do?
So I decided to join in with the 100 Day Project which started on the 31st January. For my project I decided to learn Embroidery stitches. With some of the fabric pieces that I have been creating I wanted to add some new stitches, so this was an ideal time to support my daily creative practice and learn some new techniques.
I have had embroidery hoops for as long and they too just sat around as I never found the time to try them out. These are my first embroidery stitches and you can follow me on Instagram to see which ones I complete.
- Committing to the 100 days
- Learning a new skill that I can apply in my creative work;
- Remember that I am still learning the stitches and I can't compare myself to someone who has been doing it for years;
- Showing up for myself;
- Reminding myself that it doesn't have to be perfect for me to share what I am doing;
- Congratulating myself for every day that I do show up
- Have fun!!.

New Classes have Started - BadAss Art Journal - Sign up!
We will start out be creating a background page like this one, with lots of texture, encouraging words and marks, using some of my not so often used supplies - this is a great time to incorporate the paint that you normally leave or feel uncomfortable using. You also choose some of you favourite paints to add balance and it works.

New on the Podcast - Realityarts
I wanted to share with you the latest posts of the podcast and ask you a couple of questions about your creative walk. In the first podcast I ask you to consider whether you are friends with yourself, are you treating yourself the way you would want to be treated - if not what are you going to do about it?
