After weeks away from my art journal, I found my way back with a simple, soulful practice: creating small bundles of collage scraps. In this post—and in my free “Art Journal Layers” lesson—I share how this intuitive technique can spark inspiration and help you begin your next page with ease.

Your creative space holds more than supplies—it holds your energy and dreams. In this post, I share how decluttering can clear emotional weight, spark inspiration, and help you create a space that feels safe, beautiful, and ready for your next artistic chapter.

Feeling stuck in front of a blank page? You’re not alone. In this post, I share simple mixed media prompts—from scribbles to spontaneous collage—that can help you overcome creative block. Learn how imperfect beginnings can spark joy, momentum, and a deeper connection to your art.

I’m thrilled to be featured in the very first issue of Made in Her Studio magazine. This article shares my journey from burnout to rediscovering my artistic voice, along with simple collage tips and a mixed media layering technique you can try. A gentle reminder to trust your creative path.

Letting go of a beloved painting is never easy, but it can be a beautiful act of generosity. In this heartfelt reflection, I share the stories behind some of my most meaningful works, and how releasing them opened space for new inspiration, new connections, and a deeper purpose in my art.

Sharing your light creatively is one of the most beautiful, powerful ways that you can tip the scales, and bring much-needed healing and good vibes into your life, the lives of those you love, your community, and the world at large.

Did you know it’s OK to make art just for YOU? What if I created a cool mixed media canvas for my home, just to use as a backdrop for the houseplants in my dining room? Yes! Permission granted to not make a masterpiece, but simply something artsy to beautify our homes. Come take a peek at the process!

I want to share an unfinished, and probably the weirdest, darkest page in my art journal yet. Are you up for something a bit grungy?

Not every art journal page or painting is going to start with a pretty background. Sometimes, all we can manage is a hot and ugly mess. But layer by layer, we can build something true and beautiful on top, just like this wild fairy waiting for new wings…

Butterfly and fairy art are simply my favorite things to create, and right now I’ve got lots in the making! But for a very long time, I had a big creative block holding me back…

I just finished my "word of the year page" in my art journal, and it’s all about COLOR! A single butterfly wing turned into a story of hope and possibility…

Finishing an art journal is always so special, and I'm so excited to take you along as I share a full flip-through video! Grab a nice cuppa, relax and enjoy!

It’s always so special when you reach the last page of your art journal. A fairy invited herself, sitting on a swing… Maybe she’s not ready to take flight just yet?

Let's paint! Join me in the studio and let's expand our color palette (and our comfort zone) with a fun abstract mixed media series!

I'm just back from the loveliest mixed media painting retreat in the South of France, led by none other than the magical Kelly Rae Roberts. Come take a peek!

When I feel a little “blue”, there’s no better place to turn to than my art journal: mixed media collage, color, journaling and found poetry come together to express emotions and allow a magical story to emerge… Come discover the making of this mixed media art journal page step by step, layer by layer!

When life gets a bit too much, I'm so grateful for the gift of art in the midst of it all. Because the creative process is a wonderful teacher: the more you make art, the more you learn to let go of perfectionism and find creative solutions. Art makes you practice these mindset skills over and over again. That's why I always consider my art-making time as creative self-care.

Flowers have this way of blooming in unexpected places and a crack in the pavement is enough for nature to take over. From paint left-overs to beautifully imperfect blooms, come discover the process of this colorful art journal page!

This week thousands of creative souls are embracing the joy of flowers and having fun with mixed media collage in the Free Flower Flow Taster Week! Take a peek inside the classroom…

I always leave my art journal on my table, open at a page in progress. As the days go by, the layers build up, inspired by whatever I’m thinking and feeling in the moment, a creative outlet to process life with all its ups and downs, a sacred space to reconnect to my soul.
