Fairy Tale Journaling

by Diane Salter(dianesalter@hotmail.com)

 

Description: This is an article that I wrote for Art on the Loose zine. It’s about how I incorporate Fairy Tales into my journaling.

A little background info: I believe that our journals are our creative selves trying to speak to us. As children, we each had stories that we were inexplicably drawn to, memorized, absorbed. As I began to include my favorite stories in my art journals, I saw they had subtle messages that they were trying to send me, if I’d only “tune in”. So I began to pay closer attention to them and look deeper for their hidden treasures. This is what I’ve done to help that along. I hope that you’ll use them to uncover your own methods for channeling your creative child.
