We are a group of amateur artists from around the world, based mostly in the United States who are interested in learning about how to integrate watercolors into regular sketching and writing journals. The group started from the "Illustrated Watercolor Journaling" classes taught by Gay Kraeger and Christina Lopp in central California.

The purpose of this Yahoo Group is to connect members who are interested in forming groups in various parts of the world where we can meet to sketch, watercolor and journal together, or share information online with each other.

Here's an excerpt from our website:
"Why journal? Specifically why journal with drawings and watercolors? We have found that some amazing things happen when you record your life this way. Whether you are traveling, exploring, or just adventuring through your daily life, many things happen to us when we journal and watercolor. Watercoloring lends itself to "happy accidents" and quick sketches."
