Welcome to Cody Doll Artist. I am Cody Doll, in case you couldn't tell. I grew up in a small town off the coast of Florida with a special needs brother. I would say I had a broken home life. It was not all bad but it wasn't easy. I don’t remember much from my younger childhood but I do remember creating art. Now I am living with my partner James a little further south then where I grew up. In 2014, as I was going to college, I developed serious health issues. To help combat the pain and sadness I felt, I started art journaling. Art journaling has completely changed things for me.
Since I started art journaling, great things have happened. I joined two amazing groups last year: Get Messy and Documented Life Project. Both groups are supportive. They taught me different styles and techniques of art that I would not have found otherwise. I have since learned my style of creating is a unique as I am. Being able to art journal has helped me to feel more open and accepting. I express myself, which was something I found so hard, within the pages. I have freed myself with help of art.
Cody Doll Artist sprang up out of two failed blogs but I want this blog has become a place of inspiration; a place to share my creativity about planners, project life art journaling, scrapbooking, art techniques and more. I want Cody Doll Artist to be a place where others can connect and belong to a community of artist, beginners or advance. If you chose to create, share with me. I would love to know your style. If your just starting, don't be scared. The world of art is big enough for all.
