Art journaling is not about perfection.
Art journaling is not about perfection.
It’s about exploring, experimenting, and allowing yourself to create without worrying about getting it “right”. Many people feel stuck before they even begin because they think they need the right supplies or a beautiful sketchbook.
In reality, you can start much more simply.
In this video, you’ll see how to use a book you already own as your art journal and how to prepare your pages so they can handle collage, paint, and layers.
You’ll also see how easy it is to begin a page without overthinking the process.
If you have an old book and a little curiosity, you already have everything you need to begin. One page and one simple layer is enough to get started!
What Kaisa’s Previous Students Are Saying…
“It was a gentle course and a space for becoming myself in my art journal. Kaisa is a very kind and generously encouraging tutor. I'd absolutely recommend the course to everyone who's interested in mindful art journaling, finding yourself in the quiet and playful space in your journal. Everyone can experience the healing aspects of it. I was surprised what the course actually did for me. Kaisa created a beautiful course and a lovely community”

“I loved to learn about this gentle and relaxing form of art. It helped me to make it a daily habit to show up to make art, as little or as much as I want, with no pressure at all. It helped me calm down. I made it a habit to journal before bedtime to calm down and find better sleep. I loved to load my thoughts in the pages in asemic writing to let go.”
— Claudia
“Wonderful course, very relaxed and self-paced. I enjoyed the different techniques as well as the gentle reminders of being mindful throughout the process. I definitely feel I have become more mindful as well as loosening up about art journaling. I like the format - steps are separated, which allows for working in 10 minute sessions.”

“I found out, that art making is my personal haven to get my head clear and calm me down. And that it absolutely doesn´t mean, that you have to produce something. Just getting lost in the progress and see where its going.”
