NaNoJouMo 2015 Day #4 (Art Journal Page - "Work")

Welcome to Day #4 of NaNoJouMo 2015

Today I just wanted to play around with my Dylusions Paints. I like them best when all the colors blend together. I admit I spent a little more time than I had blending and blending. Haha. I just get in the zone sometimes.

When I got to the point where I picked the words I wanted to use in my journal, “value” stood out to me. Lately, I have been trying to think about things before I do or say them. I think to myself, “Am I adding value to this conversation or to whatever it is”. I love when things just come together like that!

I have been fortunate enough to be making the time every day to make an entire page in my art journal. I’m sure it won’t be that way all month long, but if it starts being a chore and feeling like an obligation, I will stop with no regrets.

In the meantime, I am having a blast getting in my journal every day and making some beautiful pages along the way.
