Introducing Zol Journals and Save The Date!

Hello You!

While I’ve been recovering from surgery and healing my body, I’ve also been creating and building on my newest idea. It was many years ago that I began a regular practice of art journaling. At that time it was an outlet for my creativity, an expressive practice that I found to be so accepting. What began as a doorway into my creative process, led to my understanding that art is more than making something beautiful. It is expressive, healing, personal and deeply transformative.

Art journaling transformed me by teaching me to listen inwardly. It turned pain into expression, confusion into clarity, and silence into dialogue with my soul.

It became a practice of returning home to myself, again and again, with compassion and curiosity.

Imagine feeling invited to begin, to explore, and to create a space that is wholly your own.

I’m so excited to share where this practice has led me...introducing... 

✨ Zol Journals ✨

What is a Zol Journal?

A sacred space for your healing and transformation. An invitation to weave your words, your art, and your symbols into the story of your path. Each page becomes a step on the journey home to yourself.

What makes each Zol Journal unique?

The quality paper I’ve chosen to make them with.

Why a Zol Journal?

Because a blank journal can be so much more than empty pages. It can be a place to write, sketch, and make art as you move through your own process of healing and growth. A space to track your journey, explore ideas, and create freely.

What makes each Zol Journal unique?

Each journal has a little stash of collage papers and fabrics tucked inside, little sparks to ignite your imagination.

Who is a Zol Journal for?

✨ YOU! ✨

Within its pages, you can pour out words and paint, shaping your path of transformation. It’s a quiet companion, holding space for your art, your healing, and your return home.

What makes each Zol Journal unique?

The hand-painted cover by me. An original work of art.

Save The Date!

On Saturday, November 15th from 5-8pm, I’ll be releasing the first Zol Journals at Barracks 16 UNBOUND. This is not an ordinary party. This is the annual party when Barracks 16 pulses with sound, color, and untamed spirit. The art studios awaken and the artists share their creativity.

This year marks my sixth holiday season offering a new body of work and I’m thrilled to share Zol Journals as part of that tradition. These one-of-a-kind, hand-painted companions are made to hold your words, your art, and your unfolding journey.

I would love for you to join me on the 15th to celebrate and see the Zol Journals for the very first time. If you’re not able to attend, not to worry. On Friday the 14^th, I’ll send you a private email link so you can view and purchase your favorite Zol Journal online.

Am I still painting wall art? Yes I am, although I’ve had to slow down to accommodate my healing process. I’ve got plenty of ideas for new paintings and will continue with my work on Faces & Figures and Abstracted Views. Here are a few I’ve recently completed, let me know what you think!

Healing is an art.

It takes time.

It takes practice.

It takes Love.

In gratitude,

Susie
