How do you start your own art journal?

art journal

An art journal is a journal and creative outlet in one, and you can use it in many ways.

Do you like to write down your thoughts and do you also like to be creative? Then an art journal could be just the thing for you. You can write in it, paste images, sketch on the pages, or paint a picture on them. Use it to keep track of things in your daily life or create your own fantasy world: You’re free to do what you want, and that’s what makes a visual journal so fun. Like the sound of it, but are slightly daunted by all those empty pages in front of you? Here are some videos to help you get started.
