Hope and I are journal buddies and she told me about this book Style Statement. It seemed like a really fun exercise to go through a bunch of questions and come up with two words that integrate various aspects of your being into an effective balance. I was ready to jump right in!"Your style statement defines your authentic self. It is a compass for making more powerful choices, a guide for designing a life that reflects your whole being. An anchor, a symbol, a mantra. A declaration, and affirmation, a reminder.
You, fully expressed."
I am working through all the questions in a notebook and then working with images and just a few words to summarize in my art journal. Here are the first two sections (of eight!!) that I have completed.
Home +
Stuff
Fashion
Fashion +
Sensuality
I love it when you share your art journals, Kari! You are the second person that I have seen talk about this book this week...I think that I am going to have to see if I can locate a copy.... smiles!
ReplyDeleteI love that two word thing... makes me think...
ReplyDeleteHome = Feathered Nest
Stuff = Yummy Goodness
Fashion = What's that?
and so on... Love this!
This puts me to shame with my journals! Big inspiration!
ReplyDeleteOh how wonderful! I love seeing your journals and your style. I'm afraid I don't have a style in my home. I plan to get one this year. It's a goal anyway...

ReplyDeletegreat pictures of your journal; thank you for sharing "Style Statement" too. what a sweet blog you have.
ReplyDeleteI just went and bought the book at lunch! I have been looking for something like this to help me journal and share myself with my children later in life. I will keep you posted on how it goes. I am hoping there are directions that show you different ways to do this? I am not sure how!
ReplyDeleteOh I love these sweaters. I've been revamping some lately. They are addiciting. I love the red one with giant leaves and flowers....maybe that idea will be my next!
ReplyDeleteDid you ever find your style? I just did a blog post mine. Hope emailed me because it turns out our styles have similiar names!Here's my post: http://katydiddys.blogspot.com/2009/08/creative-nostalgia.html
