Welcome to the Art Journaling Monthly Muse!

Muse:
verb: to reflect deeply on something
noun: the source of artistic inspiration

For 2017 we have decided to try something a little different in the Art Journal forum. We know how much you all like to create and we love seeing what you come up with.

Soooo . . . .

Each month this year, one of the Pollys will be posting a Monthly Muse.

The idea is to present you with inspiration and eye candy, to get your soul speaking and your mind turning. The Muse may take any number of shapes. It might be a blog we find inspiring, a piece of art work we are drawn to, a particular artist we adore, or maybe a song, quote or photograph. Who knows. Each month's muse will be as different as the Pollys who are sharing them with you, so this should be fun!

Our goal is to keep Art Journal challenges and inspiration available all month long, without creating undue stress or anxiety. You can create one page a month, or several pages a week, whichever best fits your needs and creativity.

With the exception of January, we will post the Muse for that month in the first few days of the month, so be on the lookout for the new Muse around that time. In respect to MOC we will post a Sample Muse in January to get you acquainted with the new format. You are welcome to play along for fun, or not, as you see fit. In February we will start the Monthly Muse in earnest.

We are so excited to give this new idea a shot, and we hope you are too!
So get ready! You are about to be inspired!​
 
Oh prepare yourselves, as I have been scheming, <cough cough> I mean pondering February, and have something brewing...and can not wait to play with ya'll. In the meantime...the MOC is hopping and I so hope you play along and bring your artistic journaling skills to the gallery!
 
I love the inspiration of these type of posts and maybe this will be the year that I actually love my artsy pages more.
I tend to stick to what I know, feel I am good at and those artsy things can be marginally intimidating.
 
We are super excited about the new format and can't wait for you to enjoy what the new year is bringing!
 
Yay! this is going to be so much fun! really looking forward to it starting proper next month! :)
 
This sounds like fun. I loved the inspiration that came a couple of months back with the kit inspired by Teesha Moore. I'm really looking forward to that now.
