"I've kept an Art Journal since before it had an official title - I just called it my 'Booke' and filled it with diary entries, sketches, and whatever was on my mind at the time. I'm thrilled to see more recognition given to this hobby, and I look forward to sharing the habit with new and seasoned journalists."  Kiki's perspective as a WW-P parent and art teacher will add a unique and playful energy to this new offering at the WWA.
