"Oh to have a tree to hold a diary,
maybe two or three...or more!
Yes, that is what I wish for..."

Great to see 'diary' for IF's prompt word this week even though I've never really been into keeping one, not one filled with words that is....
However, thanks to the art journal revolution the last couple of years - or should I say revelation - I've found that keeping an art diary/visual journal has given me the most creative and satisfying results. I think for me it's mostly been because the pressure is off to create "art". Some of my best, most spontaneous & fun pieces can be found in the 12 or so journals I've been playing in for the last few years.
I encourage you (as I do in the local art journaling classes that I offer) to start an art diary/ journal and see where it takes you on your art journey, you may be pleasantly surprised.
Cheers!
This is lovely.
