JOURNAL BLISS WORKSHOP:
Learn how to create groovy backgrounds, bodacious borders, fanciful lettering, doodles and faces in this fun four week course with me, Violette! You'll receive a PDF file and video every week.
You'll be able to upload your art on NING and connect with others in the forum. During the once a week live chat you can get your questions answered by me. You'll be encouraged to follow your Bliss by accessing your very own Unique Creative Expression. Playing with paint, lettering and faces has never been so much fun! Let that inner child out to play and silence your Inner Critic.
Week one: Groovy Backgrounds – learn how to create backgrounds using a variety of techniques such as scrap painting, collaging, stenciling, stamping and writing.
Week two: Bodacious Borders – Create fun, exuberant borders to enhance your Journal pages
Week three: Fanciful lettering and Doodling – learn how to add your special twist to your art.
Week four: Making faces and putting it all together – learn how to create easy faces to personalize your journal pages. In week four we'll be also putting all the elements together to create exciting and vibrant pages which help you Unleash your Inner Eccentric!
My Metta zine about Art Journaling from iHanna in Sweden arrived and I have been taking it with me everywhere, to soak up the charmingness and information!
