For those of you who want to know more about Love Yourself for Art:

LYFA is as annual free art project that runs the entire month of March. By signing up participants pledge to love themselves (no self harm, no counting calories, no negative self talk inside or outside of your head) for (at least) a month. In exchange participant receive a free piece of mini art usually arriving by post in the beginning of April.

People are more than welcome to donate pieces of mini art. (Shoot me an e-mail). You may both participate as well as donate.

You are allowed to sign up for LYFA even if you have participated in the past.

I will shoot e-mails or send encouraging messages through out the month (Not too many) as well as give out some art "challenges".

Hope all is well.
See you in March!

Hi guys! I can’t believe that it’s already time for Love Yourself For Art! I’ll be honest I've missed it and can’t wait to get started this year. I already have some new plans in the works and new art on the way.

Love Yourself for Art is an art project started by me six years ago now. The idea is that you sign yourself up for a month (March) of self love and awareness. During this month you will receive prompts from me that you can choose to do or not. As well as words of encouragement. At the end of the month you will receive a mini piece of art created by me or donated by another artist. 

Originally this project was focused on helping those that suffer with self injury, but over the years I've expanded it to include anyone who needs the time to focus more on themselves. 

If you would like to sign up please message me here or send me an e-mail saying that you would like to participate. JFordham84@gmail.com

Also - feel free to share with anyone that you feel could use the extra love in March.

SIGN UP's START TODAY!!! Yay!

If you want to participate or donate send me an e-mail (JFordham84@gmail.com) or message me here.

Hey all!

Just popping in after some time to say hello!
I'll be honest. I'm not around here all that much anymore.
I miss the community. The support and group projects and crits.
But I just don't have time.
I don't get on a real computer any more.
My phone is as close to an internet relationship as I have at the moment.
(Wish DA had an app. heh.)

You CAN keep track of my here: wordsaremyweakness.tumblr.com/
I try to update pretty regularly.
Life has been challenging lately.

I lost my Grams recently and I'll still dealing with the aftermath.
Both emotionally and physically as I've taken her roll of caring for my severely handicapped aunt.
I suppose it's my way of honoring her.

But as always I'm still attempting to fill whatever time remains with art!
(Can't wait for Love Yourself For Art this year... I really need some self love.)

Also - I've *FINALLY* gotten The Traveling Journal ( www.facebook.com/pages/The-Tra… ) back on it's feet again with a good deal of revisions to the original project.

I'll try to keep up and share what I'm up to.
Again - thanks for all of the love and support over the years.
This isn't a goodbye.

"is what it keeps of you."

I've had the art drive hit me lately... and I've been super bad about updating. Now it's time to get to it. <3
