I began art journaling in 2007. I have a long way to go in sophistication and techniques, but if you go through my gallery, you can see I've come a long way too. For me art journaling is about self-expression and artistic experimentation, being willing to take risks and make "bad" art as part of the process of learning to make "good" art.
