Travel art journal
This summer I've done a bit of traveling. Some trips were really just long weekends, like my bike trip on Orcas Island, and the train ride/weekend in Seattle. Others were slightly longer, like my trip to Albuquerque for the Journal Keepers exhibit. My most recent trip was to Maui for 10 days of sunshine, warmth, swimming, snorkeling, and all that good stuff. Since I haven't really been crafting much these days, I made a point to work on my mini art journal while on vacation. It's always fun to have an additional way to remember a trip. Since my books are a cross between art and journal, they include more detail than my photo albums, as well as my own unique pictorial perspective (which usually looks far different, and less realistic, than the actual thing). So, I thought I'd share some of my pages from this summer's art journal.

Christina, I love your journal. You're drawing and paintings are beautiful!
These are precious, Christina. I thought taking photos and writing were great ways to slow down and really absorb a place, but I imagine drawing and painting takes you deeper into the experience. Welcome back!
