Journaling Spread: Head Vs. Heart

While they don’t always have to agree, ones heart and mind need to speak the same language. That has always been something that I have tried to cultivate and it shows up in many of my art journal spreads.

A few days ago I came across this journal spread I stared last May but never had finished where I was working on my struggle of listening/following my heart or my mind.

The lady on the right is from an out of print replication version of an 1800’s Exquisite Corpse game – I have so many boxes of this game since I love using them in my journal spreads, so you may see them often in my journals.

I decided to go ahead and finish it! Below is a photo of the finished spread.
