Art Journaling is the creation of a sketchbook or journal full of creative exploration, personal investigation, and artistic record keeping. Perfect for beginners as well as experienced artists, art journaling provides both a creative practice space as well as a low-pressure outlet for externalizing what we might otherwise keep inside.
In this second installment of "Themes in Art Journaling - Stems and Friends" we will explore the vast array of applications of botanical shapes in Art Journaling. Sticks and stones may break my bones. Grow where you're planted. Sow your wild oats. Plants are everywhere in idioms and metaphors, and they are a rich source of imagery. We'll draw, paint, and cut leaves, stems, flowers, and seeds and layer them with sayings and quotes.
This is a process based class, so you can come in as a true novice and still succeed. I have attached a general mixed media kit materials list if you are interested, but you can arrive empty handed and be just fine! You do not have to have attended any previous workshops within this series to participate in this one.
