A guided art journal, filled with prompts, exercises and colour-ins.
A bridge between yourself and an infinite well of ideas, inspiration and creativity. A connector between realms. A meditation you can hold.
Through this creation, my deepest intention is for you to connect with your creative power, find your flow, relax and lighten, express and release, and to get in touch with something bigger than yourself. It is up to you to decide how you wish to use this journal. Those who love structure and flow can start from the beginning and paint away in chronological order. There is a story to follow, but there is freedom within this story.
Those who love spontaneity will enjoy closing their eyes and opening the book at a random page to receive their prompt. Every page is its own journey, and you don’t need to know what was on the previous page, or on the page after, to fully immerse yourself into this interactive experience.
However, for those who decide to paint at random… Once you complete all the pages, go back to the beginning and flip through your journey. For there is always a larger purpose in smaller steps, that we do not realise until we reflect upon it...

You don't need to consider yourself to be a great artist to enjoy this meditation. Most of the prompts are very abstract, allowing you to make the art as complex as you wish. You are not here to create masterpieces. You are here to let go, connect with imagination and express yourself through colours and shapes.
WHAT'S INSIDE?
Examples of prompts and creative exercises:
✦ Intentionally spill coffee or tea on the page. Let it dry. What shapes do you see? Draw around them to create an image.
✦ Paint the way the forest smells. Paint the way it feels to be in love. Paint your aura.
✦ Create your own butterfly by painting one side and closing the book so the colours transfer to the other side, creating a symmetrical artwork.
✦ Fill the page with colours that make you feel hopeful and calm.
