?What is art journaling, and how is it different from regular journaling

Art journaling is a creative form of self-expression that combines writing, drawing, painting, collage, and mixed media techniques. Unlike regular journaling, which focuses mainly on text, art journaling incorporates visual elements to convey emotions, ideas, and personal experiences in an artistic way.

?What materials do I need to start art journaling

To start art journaling, you’ll need a journal or sketchbook, acrylic or watercolor paints, brushes, markers, stamps, stencils, glue, and ephemera like magazine cutouts, fabric, or decorative paper. The beauty of art journaling is that you can use any materials that inspire your creativity!
