Spring officially began this month and everything floral found its way into this month’s art journal. I also found the journal is a great way to keep track of where I traveled during the month, on which dates, and interesting things seen on trips. As time goes on, memories can fade and details become more difficult to remember (Did I take that trip on the 23rd or the 24th?) but capturing it in my art journal makes it easy to go back and remember.
