Want to create magic on your journal pages?
For
most artists, paper, paint, mark making and journaling represent
doorways to new experiences
and insights. Most artists that I know are always trying to discover
and learn something new. We’re eager for new ideas, new techniques,
anything that will get us in the studio and working.
I want to start a fire in you! I want journaling to be rich, magical, expressive and unlike any
other form of creating that you can do. How do we do that? By working, brainstorming and taking risks.
In this day long workshop, we’ll create a one of a kind hardcover journal (with a hidden paper
pocket) that will call to you whenever you are ready to reach for the scissors or paintbrush.
Discover new ideas and possibilities in art making that are already nestled deep within you. Expand,
explore and experiment and bring your inner artist out and onto your pages.
Supply
list:
a
small bag to hold your paper scraps/trash (think a small brown lunch
bag, or the small handled paper bags they give out at Starbucks),
an
apron, scissors,
a small selection of favorite collage
ephemera (think
about reading this when choosing your images and papers),
baby wipes, cork back metal ruler, a full roll of paper towels OR old rags, a container for your paint water,
your
favorite paint brushes,
a water brush pen (OR an extra fine, detail paint brush *ONLY* IF you have one), a
few of your favorite LARGE glue sticks (please trust me when I say that
large glue sticks will last you longer. I always have two or three 40
gram glue sticks in my journal bag and that's more than enough for a
long weekend. You WILL go through the smaller
glue sticks in MINUTES), 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.)
followed by:
Beyond the Brush: Painting with Palette Knives and more
5 to 8 p.m.
We all have our favorite tools. After all, what artist doesn’t love a good paintbrush? What about other art tools like
palette knives, catalyst tools and even household items?
I’ve fallen head over heels painting with tools that aren’t brushes. After this workshop, you will, too!
Moving
beyond the brush opens us up to new possibilities and discoveries in
how we create layers on our pages. Learn how to create new colors on
your
rich, luscious, unique pages. Gain confidence in exploring new ideas
and take the plunge into a world of color. Learn that creative mistakes
are only new possibilities. Bring your journal, some waxed paper and be
ready to set off on a whole new adventure
in creative painting.
Supply
list: Your Journal (some students have found that bringing two or three
journals or a few pieces of cardstock works best to allow for drying
time), a Mini 01 Catalyst took (IF you have one. I will have some to
share), a small bag to hold your paper scraps
(think a small brown lunch bag, or the small handled paper bags they
give out at Starbucks),
an
apron, scissors,
a small selection of favorite collage
ephemera (think
about reading this when choosing your images and papers),
baby wipes, cork back metal ruler, a full roll of paper towels OR old rags, a container for your paint water,
your
favorite paint brushes,
a water brush pen (OR an extra fine, detail paint brush *ONLY* IF you have one), a
few of your favorite LARGE glue sticks (please trust me when I say that
large glue sticks will last you longer. I always have two or three 40
gram glue sticks in my journal bag and that's more than enough for a
long weekend. You WILL go through the smaller

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 hope to see you there!
