Finish a journal – Episode 7

By Dan Tanner  |   in art journal  | Tags: art musings , art journal , tamara laporte , Willowing Arts  

NEW Episode: Finish A Journal! Yay!!

Did you know that I have heaps and heaps of art journals? And did you know that pretty much NONE of them are fully finished/ filled up? Ha! It kinda breaks my heart when I go through my journals and it’s a mixed bag of ‘beautifully finished pages’ and ‘meh what is going on here?’ pages. 😆😂🤣  – So, in 2020 I decided to challenge myself to finish 2 of my journals and finish them so that I actually liked all the pages. AND; I decided to film the process, yay fun!

The series: ‘Finish A Journal’ was born. I am proud to say, that today I have published episode 7. That might not sound like a lot, but for serious: I never have time and so the fact that I managed 7 is something to celebrate! 🥳

I must say: I’m really enjoying trying to keep up with it even though I don’t often get the chance. I was doing pretty well filling my journals, but someone threw a (very fun) spanner in the works recently! A very very kind student/ follower of mine (Zandra) sent me her Roberson Watercolour Journal (that she had bought off me!) as she knew how sad I was that they were discontinued! How kind of her right? Sooooooo, ehrm, I now have a NEW journal that is officially not allowed to be part of ‘Finish a Journal’ but eeeeehrm, I couldn’t resist, eep!

Find out more about my inner art journal turmoil and dances with my art pages in my latest episode of ‘Finish a Journal’ HERE. And watch me create this new spread:

This little cutie on a swing just popped up on my memories and I love the mixed media textures and her cutie little face in this so much! 😍😍😍 I painted this 6 years ago.

The wonderful @therapistsanctuary and I have filmed another session for our `Creative Sanctuary` series on the y tubes 😊 . This time we talked about `shame` and `shadow work` in general. Jen made a doll and I made an empathy monster! 😊 Many of you will have created an empathy monster with me before in response to the Shadow Work Life Book lesson in the past (and also on woman unleashed!) This cutie did not disappoint me. 😊 The episode will be up on my channel soon! ♥️♥️♥️ Link in my bio/ linktree.

When I`m low and life feels heavy, I end up creating innocent, delightfully cute creatures. I don`t tend to paint `my pain`, I tend to paint `what I need` or `what will soothe me`. The sweet characters offer a reprieve of some sorts, an escape from the dark, a soulful moment of compassion and empathy. I can hear this cute little guy say; “hey hey, it’s gonna be ok, want a cookie or a hug?” 😊 Hope he brightens up your day too. ♥️♥️♥️
