April Art Journaling Challenge Week 4: Growth — https://oscraps.com/community/threads/april-art-journaling-challenge-week-4-growth.39586/

I have had a rough week with some personal issues making me feel less optimistic than I like. I started to think back to the many fits and starts that I see within myself as I continue to grow as a person. At first, I was going to put on a happy face and scrap something positive. However, sometimes growth can be hard, leading me to the page I made this week.

What an amazing page, Chris! All of the "marks" and messy lines convey the struggles that you've been going through. Wonderful Week 4 Challenge and you certainly set the bar for this last week of "Growth Challenges"! I'm giving you a Standing O for your page that's so full of feelings. https://oscraps.com/community/threads/april-2024-standing-os.39579/page-3#post-700567
Oh wow!! I though the page was a "mess" but it conveyed how I was feeling. And that-- is what mattered. Thank you for the Standing O!!♥
 
You're right Chris, you can or rather, sometimes you should dare to write about your real feelings. As we get older, we dare to hold up a mirror more often, and that shows that we are growing as people. This beautiful design illustrates that!
 
This is amazing. Isn't it awesome how art can be so enlightening and therapeutic. This is an amazing page. I don't know your story but I can see the pull between tension and energy in the page. The backwards "FEAR" and "LOST" is very profound in a way.
