ON VISUAL JOURNALS

"Visual journaling is a way to record life's experiences, feelings, emotional reactions, or one's own inner voice visually and verbally. Sometimes words alone fail to describe what we feel inside. Visual journaling is a creative way to respond to an internal, very personal situation in traditional sketchbooks, or through non-traditional works of art that include both text and imagery." -Michael Bell

Bell was first introduced to the concept of sketchbook visual journaling by Howard County Art Coordinator, Mark Coates. Bell took this journey even further and created: visualjournaling.com
