Wild Winter Colorful Journals

With Laura Edwards

Thursday, February 6 - March 19   3:00-5:00p 

$240 / $219 early bird pricing through 1/15

​

Some of us like to write in journals to record random thoughts or events that have special meaning in our lives. Others like to keep travel journals or create themed books to commemorate those special times. Some of us simply like to do a little art every day in a book or journal. If you write or sketch every day or occasionally, or haven’t considered it until now, but love keeping journals, this

fun-filled workshop will take your journals to a whole new level.

​

For 6 weeks we’ll explore new techniques and inspirational materials while we play with color, texture, pattern, and form. We’ll paint, print, stamp, cut, tear, fold, and collage your pages into intricate multi-layered surfaces, making each page a

one-of-a-kind ‘canvas’ for your words, images, drawings, or photographs.

​

Stimulate your creativity and launch your journals onto a whole new path. Open to all skill levels.
