“The object isn't to make art, it's to be in that wonderful state which makes art inevitable.”
Robert Henri, author of The Art Spirit, is one of my favorite artists, writers and creative individuals.
Every time I open up a copy of his book I discover a new gem that inspires me to create. I am a firm believer in the fact that inspiration is truly everywhere and that as humans we are driven to make and create.
“In every human being there is the artist, and whatever his activity, he has an equal chance with any to express the result of his growth and his contact with life. I don't believe any real artist cares whether what he does is 'art' or not. Who, after all, knows what art is?”
Immerse yourself in daily sessions of creativity and inspiration. Each session has a different focus. In the final session, you will create a completely unique journal! Begin the workshop with luscious layers of paper, paint and pen. Then, step back and look at your pages with fresh eyes. You will then deconstruct these pages to create an entirely NEW journal. Using the key elements and principles of art in fun, fresh ways, you will learn new techniques for collage, mixed media, acrylic painting, journaling, color theory, composition, design and much, much more. Learn new ideas and techniques in creative self expression. Gain confidence in your work, know your tools and your capability to brainstorm and problem solve.
“The artist must be a student.”
As always, my class is geared towards beginner to advanced, there is something for everyone in this workshop. I have been keeping a journal for over 35 years and an art journal for 21 of those years. I am always trying to learn new ways, techniques and approaches to creating. There is always something new to learn and experience.
“The end will be what it will be. The object is intense living, fulfillment; the great happiness in creation.”
As always, should you have any questions, please feel free to email me at EGorey99@sbcglobal.net
