I wrote about this on my Instagram, but I want to write more about it here. I have made a portable life. Scrapbooking, writing, art, reading, etc. can be done anywhere.

New Visual/Poetic Project
I am beginning a new project that is part surreal poetry, part visual art. I am using typography as a visual art form.

I want … Continue reading New Visual/Poetic Project
Busy at Home

This is an assortment of Bible verse collages I made a few years ago. Some are hard to read, but all have beautiful images that I found. I hope you enjoy them.

This morning … Continue reading Kierkegaard, Queens, Painting
More Digital Art Journal Pages
I've been able to stabilize my mood through creating simple art. I'm enjoying it. The rich color raises my mood. Bipolar never gets easy, and it's important to use every avenue to stay stable. Pharmaceuticals are not enough.
Digital Art Journaling Pages 2
I've been creating more journal pages. The rainbow colors make my heart sing. They're simple enough, and I really enjoy making them. I downloaded a bunch of textures to use to make more, and I still have a lot to go. It's distracting me from writing - and from the laundry.

Using gradients, public domain photos, my photos, textures, light leaks, texts, cut outs, and digital scrapbooking paper, I have spent the afternoon art journaling on my phone. It feels so good! It's very enriching and cathartic. Welcome to my creative space, where I strive to reap the therapeutic benefits of art. Making these art journal … Continue reading Digital Art Journaling
