Hi, I am Rachel! I live my wild and colorful life on a little island in the PNW with my husband, Dan, our herd of small boys, and 24 chickens.

I spend my days beachcombing, growing food, flowers and children, painting on things and journaling about it all.

I am obsessed with things with stories.... thrift store treasures, patchwork quilts, old books, handmade sweaters, chipped mugs, stained recipe cards from my Grandmother's kitchen....

I started creating what I call 'heART journals' about 8 years ago.

They are the stories of my life.

More than just art journaling, or scrapbooking.... when I flip through the pages of one of my journals, I am giving life to moments that will not be forgotten, stories that will go on being told, places that will be remembered.

I now squeal out loud at every opportunity to share this. I teach workshops and classes and now offer an online course!

Come say hi!!!!
