The PDF that I&#8217;m developing for the class is THOROUGH. I love being able to develop solid and inspiring resources for you. I know that not everyone learns the same way, and I&#8217;ve realized how helpful a written guide is. With that in mind, <strong>I wanted to share some of the lessons about blending art &amp; writing in your intuitive art journal.<\/strong> I think blending art and writing doesn&#8217;t come naturally to all of us, but can be so cathartic and beautiful in art journal pages.<\/p>\n<p>So my gift to you today is an excerpt from the <a href=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/diving-deep-intuitive-art-journaling-live-class\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Diving Deep class<\/a> PDF. I hope you enjoy these techniques and share them on social media with #mindfulartstudio so we can all inspire each other!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8067 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-05-at-2.27.29-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"597\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Using Text in Your Art Journal\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>The text on your page is not just writing, it\u2019s a part of the art piece. <\/b>Of course, you can always leave things more loose, letting them evolve naturally. I do this often as well. It&#8217;s important to make space in your journal for the ugly stuff too.<\/p>\n<p><b>Sometimes I NEED to just let go of the aesthetics and do what feels good, regardless of how it looks. <\/b>Other times, it\u2019s a blend of following intuition and thinking about it as \u201cart.\u201d What helps me decide what I need that day is to tune into my body before I begin to create, and set an intention to honor my needs in the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Having said that, let\u2019s talk about using writing as a part of your artistic composition on the page for those times when you want to blend your intuition with aesthetics. You want your writing to look like a natural part of the piece, not something you slapped on top of it as an afterthought.<\/p>\n<p>I use writing in several different ways. Try them all, and then experiment with your own ways as well:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Use writing to create a textured background.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I frequently write on a blank journal page and then draw or paint over it, covering some or all of my words. The first image with the triangles shows writing with triangles drawn over, and then a layer of smoky gesso, and then collage. The second image shows writing, smoky layers of high flow acrylic paint, collage, and gel pen for the branching lines.\u00a0<b>I love how layering art techniques in this way allows me to transform my feelings on the page. <\/b>I can go from feeling stressed and confused, or even icky, to relaxed &#8211; like I have a handle on things. Sometimes the symbols that emerge &#8211; like with the fish and bird in these two pictures, have powerful metaphors that help calm my feelings.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8056 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-05-at-1.56.03-PM.png\" alt=\"how to write in an art journal, Blending Art &amp; Writing In Your Intuitive Art Journal \" width=\"595\" height=\"593\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8057 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Screen-Shot-2018-04-05-at-1.57.20-PM.png\" alt=\"how to write in an art journal, Intuitive art journal ideas, intuitive art journal\" width=\"597\" height=\"594\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Use text partially hidden in the imagery.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The image on the left has writing in the white \u201csmoke\u201d that surrounds the figure. It doesn\u2019t jump off the page, but rather is a secret to be discovered. I like this element of mystery and how it matches the feel of the piece. The blue piece on the right uses the writing almost as part of the line work on the page. It\u2019s hard to read in many spots.
