Disorganized Chaos

Hopefully, some of you will recognize the following as creating, rather than just, oh my goodness, WHAT A MESS!   It's called Art Journaling and it requires, in my case, many resources.  Since I want a Life Art Journal, combining writing and artsy stuff, these resources are scattered throughout the house.  Old family photos tucked away in dark places, un-named and almost forgotten; an embellishment garnered here and another there; art materials; researching techniques; cross referencing photos with graphics,etc.  Of course there is much, much more.  Being extremely forgetful, finding these materials and where they are stored (tucked) is a task in itself.  The reward, however, becomes more evident with each page as I find it stimulating memories that were, also, forgotten.  Incidents, faces, names become once again present in that storage facility we call a brain!   Nice to know I haven't totally lost that yet!  Anyone at all can Art Journal.  It can be about anything you desire or specific.  If you look at Pinterest, or have a good journaling buddy, you will be inspired.  

 Mine begins in 1900 with the 
birth of my Mother....as that is
how I came to be.  Imagine the
pages and the thickness this will
require.  And how do you suppose
the ending might be?
