An art journal
can be more than a journal.
My art journal is a place to explore marks, colours, collage, and layers. But there’s more happening here than what you see on the page.
I’m following my curiosity, exploring feelings and ideas, and paying attention to what draws me in.
I don’t always know where something will lead, but my choices aren’t random.
We don’t have to know where we’re going to be creating with intention.
The 10 – Minute Art Practise…
Every time you return,
you strengthen your connection.
Every time we create, we leave something behind.
Marks, colours, rhythms, imagery, and ideas become clues to what naturally draws us in.
Over time, these small discoveries accumulate, helping us recognize our own emerging visual language.
Our art becomes a record of discovery.
What Keeps Returning?
What if we stopped searching quite so hard for our art style and became curious about what’s already appearing?
Sometimes the most important discoveries happen when we stop making.
The “Pause.”
Not every creative impulse needs an immediate response.
Sometimes we need space to step back, reflect, and let an idea simmer.
Pausing helps us notice connections we might otherwise miss and discover what feels meaningful enough to follow.
The space between our creative moments matters, too.
These are short enough to sit comfortably alongside your artwork and imagery without making the homepage feel text-heavy.
What keeps returning?
What am I drawn toward?
What might I want to follow?
What if your art is already showing you the way?
Have you ever found yourself searching for your art style?
I think many of us spend so much time looking outward for inspiration,
techniques and ideas.
It’s about becoming curious enough to recognize what’s already there.
Inner Rhythm
A different way of working.
Inner Rhythm is a guided journey through intuitive abstract art, offering the freedom to explore and permission to trust your own choices. Learn to notice, allow and follow your intuition as you discover a creative process that feels like your own.
Inner Rhythm opens for enrolment at selected times throughout the year.
What happens when we keep following?
I’ve spent a long time exploring within the pages of my art journals.
Now I’m becoming curious about what might happen when I begin following some of the threads I’ve discovered there further.
I don’t know exactly where they’ll lead. And that’s part of the journey.
I’ll be sharing this next chapter as it unfolds — the questions, experiments, discoveries and changes of direction along the way.
Beyond the Art Journal!
I’ve spent years exploring within the pages of my art journals.
Now I’m curious about where those discoveries might lead beyond the journal.
I’ll be sharing this next chapter as it unfolds on my Youtube Channel…
Hi! I’m Michele
I’m an abstract mixed-media artist and teacher living and working beside Georgian Bay.
Much of my work begins with curiosity rather than a predetermined outcome. I make, pause, notice and follow what continues to call my attention.
That way of working has gradually become something larger for me — not simply a way of making art, but a way of listening and understanding myself through the creative process.
I’m still on the path too. Perhaps, for a while, we can walk some of it together.
Perhaps you don’t need to know where your art is going yet.
Return. Make something.
Notice what keeps calling you back.
