October - Favourites

Welcome to our creative corner, where your favourite things take centre stage this month! Whether it's the tools you use, the artists who inspire you, or the techniques that bring your art to life, our collection of art journal prompts is designed to help you dive deeper into what you love most.

Through reflection, expression, and experimentation, you'll discover new layers of your artistic journey while celebrating your personal favourites. Let these prompts spark your creativity and inspire you to explore the art that resonates with your soul.

Week 1: Favourite Colour ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

• Choose your favourite colour as the theme for a journal page.

• How does this colour make you feel? Write down the emotions or memories that come to mind when you think of this colour.

• Incorporate images, symbols, or textures that you associate with this colour.

• Experiment with how the colour interacts with others by adding small accents of complementary or contrasting colours.
