The Color Journal is a colorful corner of my world where art, creativity, and everyday inspiration come together. Inside, you’ll find everything from pattern design tips and color stories to behind-the-scenes moments, creative business insights, and playful ideas for using art in real life.
This isn’t about getting everything perfect or trying to keep up with the Joneses. The blog is about playing with color, getting creative, and just having fun with it. I’ll be sharing some posts that will get you thinking, practical ideas to inspire you, and a glimpse from time to time into my life as a mom, artist, and someone who loves color. With that said, thanks for stopping by, have a look around, and hopefully, I can leave you feeling inspired.
