Art Journal Page Process (03) 

I love how you just went with the mistakes. Art is about working through the mistakes to find the beauty in them. It turned out great!

I can't believe it. At the very beginning I thought "Man, there is NO WAY that it'll work", but the end effect just blew my mind! If it was me, I would've given up halfway, not satisfied with the effects. Several times it got to the point it looked really good and I thought "Now, any more than this will spoil it" but you went and added more, touched it up and it looked even better! Seriously I loved the video and the way you were just having fun with it. So inspiring! I am going to start my own journal now! And I will never not stop halfway anymore!

At first I thought this was going to be a mess but BOI I WAS WRONG. This is fantastic, inspirational an cute af. Im going to subscribe.

the baby made me smile so hard. how precious

There's something so refreshing about how careless you are with it! Great job it looks amazing!!!

that baby was a jumpscare

I am very thankful to you because you cleared my misconception that everything had to be perfect.You really reflected the true meaning of art.

3 words: best mum ever.

the magically appearing baby! too cute & he looks sooooooo happy. a great assistant!

I bet your son will end up being an artist just because you held him and made this. It's bound to make a favorable impression on him!

i am very random in my work too. love your style. no precision no pressure

Holding your baby in one hand while crafting with the other - that's what I call multitasking! Lol

the baby jumpscared me hahaha so cute omg!! loved the work

you are an inspiration. I loved drawing as a child and preteen but then left it behind and never really thought about it again. I am now 52 and am falling in live with journals. i have aleays loved the idea of journals but until recently i only thought of them for writing but with the new art journals and altered books and composition books I am finally realizing I can get back to being artistic with my journals. I know it is not as easy as you make it look but even after all the other people i have watched you are the only one that has inspired me to actually try to painting and not just gluing paper to pages.

I really enjoyed this video its inspiring for me since I can relate with the juggle of art and babies 💖

I love the spontaneity of mixed media art journaling. It's something that's very hard for me, personally, to do in traditional art. That's why I admire artists like you who do this sort of thing. Love that you were inspired by your son's words. Your baby really scared me when his cute little head popped up on screen all of a sudden XDDD

I NEVER GET TIRED LOOKING AT THESE PAGES...SO WELL DONE. I LOVE YOUR SON'S QUOTE.

this inspires me t o keep making art! sometimes i give up in the middle of a piece but this is so lovely! i have to think that in anything somebody creates there must be art.

You making art with your childs quote is priceless... Thank you.

Absolutely inspirational - during the Covid crisis- I need it - love the finished result.

I loved watching your process and especially that you were inspired by your son. I admire how you persevere at night, son in one hand, doing one-handed art!!! You are an inspiration!

Respect for the mother holding her baby in one hand and doing art with the other. I would probably scrapbook my baby lol I love your starry book pages! Your child is going to be awesomely artistic! ^_______^

The fact that you were holding a child while doing some of this! Your amazing!

arty videos are so therapeutic

This is such a neat idea! I'm totally using this idea with my newborn once he's older :)

I love how you sometimes refer to you and your baby as we when youre glueing down the pictures even though you're the one doing all the work. It's so adorable how much you love your little baby

Yesterday I just fund your channel and I spend half day to see your work... All is amazing. I don't have see someone to do journal like you... Just love it

Try as I might, I’ve never been able to wrap my mind around multimedia art journaling, but this video gave me several “ah-ha” moments. Thank you for explaining each step, and what thoughts you had, but not really an overall plan. How you worked thru “happy accidents” and just kept trying different (and the same) techniques with different materials. Very helpful and peaceful to watch. Thank you!

Baby toes!!! Love this, and the quote is wonderful :)

Great job, and the fact that the idea came from a three year old it’s amazing!

At the start I didn't think that the star scrapbook paper stuff would go well but I loved how it turned out! And that quote is so cute aww

I actually was inspired to get up and do something like this for myself XD

i'm on RU-vid searching for motivation and luckily, i stumbled here. love your videos!

I just found you. So I'm sure I will be binging all of your old videos! This is so beautiful! And what a cute quote!

Like the other viewer, when you started I thought, “that looks terrible!” but you pulled it off beautifully. Well done, you!

This is beautiful. I loved watching your process

your voice and your accent makes me really sleepy and I love it

this is my first time watching your work. i love it. i have a eight myth old. it gets hard to create. my nine year old loves it always had my baby is starting to not cry when she sees me grab a sheet of paper or paint brush lol,i love what the kids say.you are great. thank you for your time.

This is soo beautiful !!! awesome !!! :)

Fabulous! It was so much fun seeing your baby Loved what he said and how you made the pages for it

Í just love how creative people is, Im not even able to cut a circle like she did with the moon, congrats!❤

If you want to do stars, try with a toothbrush, for me it always works and the results are really amazing!!

You are an artist...thank you. I’m new sub. Have been doing art journals for many years mostly with my thoughts, prayers, quotes, drawings... Very fulfilling. Love your ideas.

Thank you for the wonderful inspiration! Your crazy talented, I loved it!

Awesome page! I loved the entire process and even more, the finished page. You are quite talented!

I love the way you just jump right in without the useless boring preamble so many other artists torture me with - Great tutorial - thanks so much.

wow this looks amazing! great video :)

At first I was like, what is this all about. As the process goes by, I started to get blown away. And the result, is just insane! This is awesome! Great work!

Wow really stunning! Thanks so much. Your little one must be so cute!

That is absolutely adorable what a little blessing you have to inspire u

This video made me realize I want to teach art to kids. I just finished teaching a JA class at a local school and had so much fun but not enough to want to get my degree. But THIS is awesome! You made such simple processes into a complete work of art! Just fabulous. Thank you!

i'm in love with your work *.* !

So cool! Thanks for showing your process :) It came out beautifully.

I'm in love with your art! So beautiful and mesmerazing... xoxo from Brazil.

hahaha i was watching this on 1.25 speed and that baby just popped up and terrified me

There is nothing more I can add but --your work is amazing. This is just simply gorgeous.

couldn't imagine how it would work out. but it's gorgeous

that's so sweet! this is so awesome to watch~

thank you for being transparent...and for confirming my palette these days of color and paper coming together. keep it up.

Lovely page and what a lovely memory this will be. :-)

Wow I love this! Looks super cool!

I am so amazed at how free you are with your art! This has really inspired me, so thank you

I love this. So inspiring. I have recorded some quotes of my 3 year old have no idea what to do with them until I see this! Brilliant

Bravo! Johanna, you have mad skills for art journaling. LOVE it! Really enjoyed it a lot.

OMG, That was soo amazing at the end like I can't get over it

So cute!!! I love that you quoted your son, that is such a precious idea!

I love your page and I adored seeing your little sons foot in the shot from time to time. Thank you for sharing I love your style, "let's see what works, perfect!"

I love watching your art journal page process videos!!!! You are so inspiring! :)

I love how this comes together it's so pretty

Omg! You are crazy inspiring, plus I love your baby. I'm really into journaling but I don't have too much experience but your work is beautiful...

a marvelous masterpiece you have created! kudos to you and your baby is so freaking adorable!!

Great pages. It was hard to imagine how each step was going to get to this final spread because each new layer seemed to alter it so much but you did a fabulous job. Love the inspiration quote. This will be a treasure for you son one day!

I am so in love with this video. It is very relaxing to see how kinda careless you are. Now i also want to try something like this! You just made my day

Magnífico!! me encanta incluso como un cuadro para la habitación de un niño👏👏👏👏

I'm doing this on my art class, I'm gonna steal some ideas hehe

I love your work. I kind of have OCPD. So whenever I draw I always have to have the paint perfectly lined up, but art doesn't work that way. Some things just have to have a "messy" look to it and that's what make art so special. Art is everywhere and everybody can be an artist.

Mommy ninja skills, level 10! Very beautiful and well rendered.

You really inspire me! Makes me want to paint again :D Haven't done that in a looong time! I was never confident enough to do it. But now I see that there are so many ways to be creative!

Great video! Baby cameo was adorable, and your one-armed, creative determination is an inspiration ❤️💪

Thank you for sharing the process. I love it. Really like how you are honest in whether things work and don’t work. The end result is amazing.

What an adorable quote from your son! Of course the And And And And needed to be included! Sweet.

You are amazing, and your fan base is so lovely. Keep up the good work, mate!

I was just watching and enjoying and then an adorable little baby shows up out of nowhere. xD

That was inspiring :) Thanx for sharing, it was nice to hear some comments about difficulties, ideas and search of inspiration :) sometimes it seems that all journalers exactly know what it will look like in the end and I never know what to start with :)

This was amazing to watch! I'm brand new to all of this. Painting and stuff like that. I have done journaling all my life and kept them all...doodled in all of them and taped pictures in or copied quotes, whatever inspired me at the time. The last one was 2006! I've held on to all of them since 1989. Now that I'm mostly bedbound and housebound from illness and disability, I have struggled a lot trying to find something to pass the sleepless nights. This has been such an amazing experience. But I get more caught up in what everyone else is doing! Just like another girl commented, I myself didn't think this would work at first. You definitely showed how layering truly gets the job done and there's no perfect way (even holding a baby you can make it work) and you're only finished when YOU decide you're finished and happy with it. Thank you so much for filming this! I am definitely a new subscriber and can't wait to check out your other videos. I was absolutely blown away by this project. It turned out beautiful and was so fun to watch! I have filled up and even added a bunch of pages to my first journal that isn't done yet by any means but I have surprised myself by how fat it's become. I also use Archer and Olive dot journals and have a black page one I thought I'd go through faster than this one. Goes to show!

You should try using a toothbrush dipped in paint for the specs/dots

So neat! The baby was a nice surprise!💙! And, you are the Bomb Mom....workin' with one hand & all! But, what really blew my mind, (besides your tenacity when things weren't working), was how the blue Inca Gold made it truly look like a galaxy.😮 The transparency was perfect. It was slightly opaque, but still allowed the stars to shine through. I really, really love it! Tyfs💙💙💙

A beautiful process and a beautiful quote from your Son, how wonderful! Thanks for sharing

What a marvelous job you did! I want to fly through space now, or stargaze. I don't do this type of art, but i'm really enjoying your videos. I've even gotten some ideas for a bullet journal from you, so thank you very much. ❤💟

I love it! This is what great, loud and clear spoken words without music on the background! Yes it still excist! ;)

So cool!! I love this! Thanks for the inspiration :D

I love this video! Honestly i dont see it was a mistake at first like others, because i totally did what you did!! Art journalling is super fun like you dont really have any theme or idea in your head, you just collect pictures and paints and layer them on another and i find it very soothing ❤️ my art journal is super messy too and i know some people would judge me for it because even my mom doesnt like my messiness but you know what?!! Telling others how to create their art is so rude because art has no rule or ways to do it perfectly. You just create ❤️ again i love your art!! And your son is very cute ❤️😍

this is so beautiful!

this is so cool! 💟 even though i cant do my art without plan and detail oriented. CUTE BABY

I just found your channel the other day and have binged watched all your art journal videos! They are very helpful - as I am just starting with art journals and have no idea what I'm doing haha!

BEAUTIFUL. FANTASTIC. WONDERFUL.

Very Adorable Johanna! Love It! x

Really enjoyed how you put this altogether. I look forward to each episode. Thank you for sharing little peaks into your life. Awesome work.

LOVE your work...you have inspired me. I need this in my life right now. What a joy it is to create! Thanks❣️

Fellow Aussie OI OI OI!!!!! Well done, Johanna! Love your work, thanks for sharing!
