Think of an art journal as your own personal paper world where you get to be 100% YOU. However you want to express yourself, whatever you want to say, in whatever colors or words or songs or scribbles come to you, those empty pages are yours to fill. Visit our wonderful partner Create More, Fear Less for instructions on making a journal and ideas for getting started, including a brilliant comic by PDX artist Jonathan Hill (for those of you who like to ask the question “Why?”).
