I NEED a creative self-care art break. How about you? I have my art journal and a Sharpie for some neurographic-line-making. JOIN ME!
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.
If you’re looking for an art journal to get started with my simple form of art journaling, here's my top value-for-the-money recommendation:

I use it in my prompt videos, and for the art journaling groups at the library where I work. I LOVE the paper. It works well with the dry, wet, and layered applications I use it for. If searching for something different than this three-pack, remember the paper needs to be heavyweight and preferably hot-press because although I love the texture of cold-press it's really hard on markers and pens. This one is 140lb/300gsm.
In this video, I also used a Sharpie with a great color. Check out this set of colored Sharpies:

I also like the Amazon Basics brand fine point tip permanent markers:

And these Bic Mark-It Fine Point Permanent Markers even better:
