Art Journaling (we call it Art Church)

Art Church is about paying attention to your process of art making in an intentional and sacred way. It's about honoring the subconscious, and the magic that happens when we work together in silence. 

“The universe buries strange jewels deep within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them.”

What is Wabi Sabi?

It is a Japanese phrase and concept dating back many centuries. Imperfection is the basic principle of Wabi-Sabi. “Wabi” is said to be defined as “rustic simplicity” and “Sabi” is translated to “taking pleasure in the imperfect.”

I chose this Japanese phrase for my studio because of the old barn that is part of my studio, but also Wabi Sabi is a perfect name for the creating we do. The process of art making can be messy and imperfect. I also love that Wabi Sabi is also about accepting our beautiful imperfect selves with love and reverence.

Here is a short video about the concept of Wabi Sabi if you want to know more.
