The power of self-expression with "Just for Me" Art Journaling

What is the essence of "Just for Me" Art Journaling?

"Just for me" art journaling is a form of self-expression that prioritizes authenticity and personal exploration. It's a space where you can let go of self-criticism and external pressures, allowing your creativity to flow freely. There are no rules or expectations; the only goal is to express yourself honestly and authentically.

The background was all about grabbing a mix of gloss sprays & paints and adding in different layers & directions. A mix of light and dark shades. Using the masks from Funky Silhouettes, I painted around them, layering them on top of each other.

I also drew around them too on to collage scraps, cutting them out and adding then too. Next different tissue tape pieces were added randomly.

I wanted to add a little bit more colour, so I watered down some acrylic paint on a sponge and then applied through Best Hearts stencil. Sentiment is from Collage Words.
