Inspired by Photography

So it’s been almost forever since I last posted a prompt for our Inspire, Inspire journal. After getting wrapped up in other events it has taken me a fair amount of creative energy to open my book and find some inspiration. Usually prompts from my everyday...

Me, Me, Me – Art Journal Prompt
