In the studio, I use journals and notebooks to collect my thoughts and keep notes on paintings as they progress. One of my biggest pet peeves has been no way to keep track of where entries begin for each painting, so I implore a variety of methods, ribbon and bookmark placeholders, sticky notes sticking out everywhere.

At the same time I was looking for a new swag gift for collectors of larger works that was more substantial than a bookmark or magnet.

Currently there are eight journal/notebook designs available on Amazon featuring some of my most popular paintings.

Lined journal/notebooks feature:

• Numbered pages

• College ruled lines for writing

• Blank Table of contents

• Matte finish softcover

• White pages with light gray printing

• 6x9 inch with 160 pages

As a gentle reminder, included on the back cover of each journal/notebook are the words BE HOPEFUL. I hope these hopeful little journals bring you joy and you find a few minutes each day for yourself to fill the pages with your story.
