Hi, everyone! Happy June!  My name is 


and I am so excited to have the honor of being your hostess at Art Journal Journey this month!  Many thanks to Valerie and Susi for the invitation!  If you haven't "met" me before, I love maps – their lines, rhythm, movement and patterns.  I find inspiration in vintage atlases I collect, fascinated by the antiquated pages and the ideas of time and travel they contain. 




 I chose “MAPS” as the theme for this month, so that we could all do some exploring in our art journal pages! Your art journal pages could contain maps that are real or imaginary, drawn or collaged. Your pages could be about a physical trek outward or personal journey inward, or could be about a favorite place or somewhere you want to visit in your lifetime! Think creative cartography! I had a blast creating these art journal pages containing a paper airplane flying over a map of constellations! I can’t wait to see your art journal pages about MAPS and where they take you this June!
