Bible Art Journaling-Getting Started with Susan of “Draw in the Word”

Some of my favorite benefits from Bible Art Journaling:

• Allows time and a space to focus on scripture.
• Enhances your relationship with God by being in His word.
• Opportunity to worship through being creative.
• Combines the mind and body (brain exercise-Yeah).
• Marries passions, interests and goals.

A few supplies is all you need to get started, AND the Bible isn’t one of them!

• Acid free/waterproof makers for your outlining, lettering and journaling. Acid free in any of your product choices is a bonus.
• Mechanical pencil with WHITE eraser or a separate white vinyl eraser. No sharpener needed and these erasers are gentle and do not leave color behind on page.
• A Bible app for quick topic, word & Bible verse search.
• My fave is YouBible for my phone.

NOW lets get COLORFUL! Purchase the best quality you can afford. You won’t regret it. Going for quality over quantity. Which equals better color.

• Colored pencils
• Watercolor Pencils
• Watercolors
• Markers

Extras are endless but a few goodies:

• Acid free glue stick and or glue runner
• Washi tape (decorative tape),stickers or fun extras
• Water-brush – Water is with in the brush
• Dictionary app

• A Bible.(In your favorite version) I suggest a journaling or note takers Bible. They tend to have a heavier paper and columns for your journaling and illumination.  Accept erasing and a variety of art materials too.
