Magazine Art Journal

This is my new magazine art journal. I made it by cutting down a magazine and folding the pages over and gluing them together. It is a fun journal that I can just grab a draw, journal, glue, stick and anything else you would do in a magazine art journal. It takes the fear of a blank page out of my mind, and I can relax knowing it is just a magazine I am journaling on.

A Few Quick Art Journal Pages

Here is two recent quick art journal pages. I was playing with papers, inks, and paints having a little bit of fun now that I am getting over the trauma of an illness. I am getting better now and am looking forward to doing some art and writing again. Everyone have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by. 

Separation

My heart is bleeding
As I awaken
Unbearable pain
Of aloneness
Time goes on
My world is shaken
Eyes never-ending
Person fading
Disguising reality
Moving past and on
Choosing a different view
Looking up
Temporary exchange
A breath of new
Aching for touch
Reaching into depths
Unheard and unseen
Thoughts swinging
Rolling back into view
What am I to do
Sitting here contemplating
Possible moments with You
Hurting to sing
Pain quaking within
Heart breaking
I see my sin
Causing separation
The door is open
The hinges are rusted
And the nobs are broken
Panels beaten
Please come back in

Thoughts of the color red
Pains of over birthing
Time pounding in my head
Still reminiscing
Realizing what was said
No compromising
Still I see the red
Pounding against my chest
Rhetorical sustenance
Abandoning the wont
Unbridled Words
Unbroken Words
Remedial discussions
As if now
I break the flowing
Of over knowing
Soliciting a solace
Rasping the thoughts
Overcoming the encumbrance
Ending this moment

 

This poem and art journal page is about overcoming hindrances and negative thinking patterns. Sometimes a pattern of thinking can hinder us from moving ahead or accomplishing something; perhaps a chore, goal, or dream. It is good that we always try to be aware of these hindrances in our minds. Even if we are not strong enough to overcome them; if we are aware of them, we can work toward overcoming them. Sometimes this process can be unpleasant to experience, especially if it is painful. We can choose to counter these negative thought patterns by replacing them with positive thoughts. Just think about something else. Think about something good and positive, something that is uplifting and encouraging to yourself. And once a habit of this is achieved, one has gained control over their thoughts and the process of their thoughts. This gives you freedom from the negative and helps you achieve your goals, dreams, and whatever else you may decide you want to accomplish in life.

Sojourning in this place
Solemnizing Your Spirit
I see beauty and grace
Hidden behind a smile
Yet I've not seen Your face
But I see Your heart
So soft I savore
I taste
Let me breathe You in
Consume You
Capture You
Overcome by desire to have
My intentions...are they good?
Surely not
Immersing into You
An illusory clue
Of glowing fire
My heart plays a harp
Of love songs to You
Instrumental words with soft hues
Passion increasing
Excelling destiny
Captured...Yes arrested
By You
I'm once again All Yours

Dreamy

Dreamy and fun
I slip away
To that place
Where artist play

Rainbows bright
Candy so sweet
Jack in the box
Bunny ears and feet

Cupcakes dancing
Clouds of cheer
A colorful journey
On paper appeared

Art Journal Pages

A few pages from one of my Art Journals. I added a little poem to give you an idea of the meaning behind it. There is also a secret message hidden behind the little book page on the left side and in the little envelope too. These are all posted on my Flickr Pages as well.


 

I'm thinking of you,
And you thinking of me.
Though many miles apart,
you are beside my heart.
A moment
A Thought
A Previous Memory
Of Nov, 2007
Hidden within me
