~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I had a brand new art journal sitting by my craft table, something I had been meaning to give a try. Today's challenge at Saturday's Workout nudged me to create my first two pages.
I was hoping to capture some of what I'm feeling about my one and only child leaving home to move into his own apartment at the end of this month. Leaving the nest so to speak. My son is a runner -- he really never walked anywhere he could run.
So, therapeutic? Definitely. Fun? Very much so. Artistic.....well, not so sure about that.

Thanks Louise for your journal pages to SaWo.
Good for you! The great thing about a journal is that it's all yours. It will be fun to look back at the pages your do now.
Great pages Louise, keep them coming!
I have never done a journal...don't plan on it...don't want anyone to know what I've been up to!! ;) ;)
Great job on your pages!! It's a good way to celebrate your son's independence.

Love your tree & the colours.
Fantastic journal pages Louise- beautifully composed expression!
Fabulous journal pages to commerate a milestone. He will probly run down to your house any chance he gets.
Louise -- i love your journal -
It brings mixed feelings as our children leave the nest -- My youngest left the nest 3 yrs ago when he was married - we raise them to be good and caring people --and to me he will always be the baby -- and each child holds their own special place in our heart- kathy - ga
love your journaling pages especially since you added the images of your son! beautiful work!
fantastic pages!
Lovely heartfelt pages Louise, wonderful color and detail!
The empty nest is bittersweet like so many passages in life, isn't it. In the end I (we) found it enjoyable, nice when they come back to visit too of course!!!
Brightest of Blessings to you and yours!
