Discover inspiring ideas for the month of June and make a list of prompts that will fill your art journal pages with shiny vibes.

In Roman times, the Juno goddess, the wife of the king of the gods, Jupiter, protected marriage and childbirth. To honor this goddess, Romans gave the name of June to this month. Plus, an important event that happens in June is the summer solstice. There are relevant celebrations and myths all over the world about the sun that can offer us inspiration. Moreover, we can find inspiration from the seasonal flowers, wildflowers, and fruits of this month according to our region. Lastly, there are many international days or famous people’s birthdays like authors and painters to inspire our art journal prompts list.

Art journal June prompts ideas

Firstly, it’s good to have a pattern for our list. For example, we can decide on a few general topics like flowers, fruits, authors, painters, national days, etc. And, repeat these topics sporadically. Moreover, we can divide our list into weeks or decades to have control over the repetitive motifs.
