November 3rd-5th:
Authenticity: Finding Your Voice Through Art Journaling - THE SESSIONS at B. Strong Studio in Taos, NM
These sessions are a SERIES of separate, but related workshops that teach a variety of NEW ideas in collage, creative processing, self expression, composition, design, layering, painting and much, much more.
The workshop has been broken down in a way that allows you to take one, two or the entire three day weekend. (There is a very good possibility that those who enroll in the entire three days will finish the journal that they make in class on Friday.)

My workshops are always process-based learning while creating a unique product. I am well known for not traveling light and bring a large variety of supplies including (but not limited to) acrylic paints and mediums, collage material, rubber stamps, stencils, pens, markers, tape and more.
Please note there is a small supply list below the class description.
Beginners to advanced are welcome in ALL of my classes.

Authenticity: Finding Your Voice Through Art Journaling THE SESSIONS
Art journaling is about discovery and self expression. Your journal is your safe place to explore, express and experiment. It's your place to get lost as you repeatedly find yourself between the layers of paper, paint and pen.
In these unique series (or SESSIONS) of workshops, you will learn new ways to approach your pages using paper, paint and pen. Learn how to push yourself out of your creative comfort zone. You will create cohesive pages that are completely unique to you.
Each session stands on its own and nothing is repeated.
Here are just some of the things that this class will cover:
-Making a Journal from scratch.
-Techniques to layer paint and paper.
-Ways of putting colors together (there is no such thing as mud!)
-Ideas for adding line, shape and text.
-Journaling to express and experiment.
-Lettering tips and tricks.
-Self Expression
-Creative Courage
-How to push past creative block.
-Where to find and glean ideas that you can translate to journal pages.
-How to find images and papers to suit your tastes.
and much, much more.
Please bring your journal to class (email me if you have any questions) as well as the small supply list below.
I am known for not traveling light. That means I will be bringing my favorite art supplies to share with you: acrylics, gel medium, stencils, pens, markers, rubber stamps, ink pads and some collage material.
Supply list: a journal or paper to work on (even if you are making a journal in the Friday AM class it is nice to be able to work back and forth between two books if you like to do so),a small flat detail paint brush, a full pack of regular baby wipes, an apron, scissors, a selection of favorite collage ephemera (please think about reading this when choosing your images), bone folder, cork back metal ruler, roll of paper towels OR an old rag, permanent black ink pad (if you have one), 1" brush to glue and paint (I like chip or bristle brushes), a few of your favorite glue sticks (large glue sticks will last you longer), roll of waxed paper OR an old catalog or magazine to glue on (if you don't want to use all of your waxed paper for this.)
I look forward to seeing you there!
