Jessica Wesolek of Cre8it.com has written a great article on art journaling -

“… I can’t even count the wonderful changes in my life because I keep my art journals, and I have therefore become an evangelist on the subject. When something makes me really happy, I like to share that happiness. There is *so* much in art journaling for every creative soul, and most folks even have a sense of that already.”

Danny says -
“Every Tuesday evening from November 11th to December 16,  I shall be teaching a workshop at the Open Center in New York City.  It’s entitled, “Everyday Matters - Illustrated Journaling as a Path to Creativity.” We’ll form a group of journalers and explore all aspects of the art form over six wonderful weeks.
