Insomnia Art Journal Spread - late night art journaling process

[quiltingjen]

Really enjoyed the video and can relate to your isolation and loneliness as an insomniac on and off myself. Next time I am in a bad spell I will go to my craft studio and art journal. Just remember you are never alone as there are more of us out there than you think. Hugs lovely work.

Thank you again for sharing! I hope you are sleeping better now. Yes, I too, know all too well the lonely, alone, isolation of insomnia and wondering if you will ever sleep easily again. Why is it that everything seems so much worse and magnified at night?? Your body and mind can be so exhausted..but at the same time, you are wired!! That elusive little blue butterfly never seems to land like it does in the Lunesta commercial, huh?? Hugs... beautiful art!

Very good video. What is the music? Do you plan out what you're going to do ahead, or play things by ear?

@RainbowZen999 The music is "Late Into The Night" by Stuart Jones. As for planning - it's somewhere in between. Particularly for spreads like this, where I'm journaling to get something out of my system, I often gather up an armload of supplies that fit that mood, so I don't spend much time hunting once I'm in the groove. I don't have an exact picture in my head, but a vague idea of it. Other times if I'm just journaling for the pleasure of creating art it's much more by the seat of my pants. :)
