Journaling with the fairies today

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.

More abstract collage; grateful for this

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.

Inner child art journaling featuring Barbie

My Royal Talens sketchbook has become a catch all for my art journaling.

I was inspired to work with my inner child today. Little Rikki and I flipped through a little Barbie booklet I picked ip the other day — I finally watched the Barbie movie. And it reminded me how much I loved the color pink.

It was combined with my love of ballet and dance. I practiced free dance for the first time this last week. Due to chronic body pain, I have struggled to do move my body, let alone feel confident in moving freely. The past three months I have been focused solely on a gentle yoga practice to help facilitate easier days in my body and to free dance.

Then my grandma gifted me a statue I remember from when I used to stay at her house as a child. It’s a dark metal statue of a ballerina, tutu and all. It’s helped me to address the fact that there are some things I never let myself dive too far into. I quit gymnastics and dance as a kid due to horrible migraines, and by the time I was older, activities such as dance team were far too expensive.

The next time I remember dancing is late nights out dancing. Not fond memories for a recovering alcoholic, though not all bad. Not the type of free dance I’m going for though.

Anyways, all of this culminated on the page, and adding free dance to my habit tracker…although it is one I will be a lot more patient with. It has taken me a long time to get to this point. I don’t want to force it. No freedom in that, either.
