This blog was set up for the spreads that I do in my daily life art journal. It is simply a Mead Composition notebook where most of the pages have been transformed with acrylic paint, rubber stamps, magazine clippings, bits of my calligraphy, and my writing about whatever happened to me that day.

Good, Thanks, Help
Agneta Westman on a group that I belong to, suggested that every day you should record something you consider as being GOOD about yourself; then record THANKS for whatever was positive during the day; and last ask for HELP in preparing for tomorrow. The first one helps you recognize your strengths; the second makes you see the positives in life; and the third causes you to think about what is troubling you and aids in planning a solution.
I thought this was a great idea. Here are the pages that I was inspired to create with this concept in mind. Now, if I can just remember to do it each day, I believe it will have a positive influence on me.

Great journal prompt!
Am I in some way a little guilty ...? Hope so. In Sweden we have a very popular author called Mia Toernblom who wants us to use the 3 key words Good, Thanks and Help every day. I wrote about her in answer to a question about journaling in the group ArtistJournals I also belong to.
Thank you for sharing your very inspiring drawings! I can hardly wait to go home tonight and try a bit in the same way, myself. Best regards, Agneta Westman Stockholm
quick question.. do you pre-paint your journal pages? Or do you do then in the session?
I love your journal pages :) They reach out and speak.
