a diary of words, paper and other ephemeral things



Last night I got an amazing lightning bolt of inspiration to start creative writing again. So excited to share. Here is an art journal spread inspired by that writing session and fairies.


Found my way back to inspiration for my favorite form of expression. Often I will go on creative sprints and then feel the need to take a break from this particular medium. Always a happy return. Completed after doing some Oracle art tonight. Readings still available in my Etsy, and they include a lovely one-of-a-kind mixed media artwork to go along with your message, affirmation and prompts. shops on sale 25% until Valentine’s Day.
Sitting in my studio has been a struggle
It’s a wreck
I am too overwhelmed to try and organize it
But I need to create. Tonight I sat down and just worked through journal spreads
This one is a favorite
I will remember this feeling
When I prioritized self care
So I can show up stronger
Tomorrow










What colleges have you attended?
College is a touchy subject for me because it was a struggle. So, I won’t go into ALL of the colleges I’ve attended.
Most of my education was done at Northern Illinois University. I ended up graduating from Easten Illinois University. It took me almost 13 years to complete college. I think I went to six different schools in that time.
Education is different for everyone. Had I a chance to do things over, I would not have gone away to college. I would have researched more and gone through my other options.
But it’s not helpful to dwell on the past.
