Welcome to Better With Art! I'm Melinda and I'm here to encourage you to reclaim your creativity and practice creative self-care with weekly small-art prompts that can be done in an art journal or on paper if you don't have one. Link below for my favorite if you’re looking for one. It works well with the dry, wet, and layered applications I use it for.
This week we’re relaxing with neurographic-style line-making. We’ll be adding to this page over the next couple of weeks. This week all you need is a Sharpie or other waterproof pen or marker.
If you'd like to extend the week's theme with journaling prompts and other creative self-care inspiration, click below to sign up for Better With Art emails.

Here's my top value-for-the-money recommendation if you'd like an art journal to get started with my simple form of art journaling:
amzn.to/3oThdR4
I use it in my prompt videos, and for the art journaling group at the library where I work. I LOVE the paper. If searching for something different remember that it needs to be heavyweight and preferably hot-press because although I love the texture it’s really hard on markers and pens. This one is 140lb/300gsm.
