Class Description:
Reconnect with your inner artist. Looking for more confidence, excitement, and clarity in your creative work? Art Journal Joy can help you build those qualities and more. Art journaling is not about writing, although writing can be part of it. It is a space to explore your story, intentions, dreams, and celebrations through creativity. Here, your artist can show up freely and playfully. As you experiment with different materials, colors, compositions, and products, you will discover new artistic interests—and reveal more of yourself in the work you create.
Come join us one day a week for three weeks in Art Journal Joy. You will start by setting up your journal and learning about what art journaling is about. The second session you will dive into the creation of collage and learn about composition, materials, and products. You will see your collage come to life. The third session is working more in your journal and discussing how to continue this exploration.
