What is art journalling?

Art journaling can take on many forms but the overall idea is that it is a visual record and practice that enables the artist to:

Build a practice of creating art in a low-pressure environment; Experiment and identify one's “style”; Test concepts and ideas before moving on to bigger projects; Create purely meditative marks and drawings; Develop their artistic skills. Art journaling is a practice that has been used by creatives from all types of disciplines for centuries. But the best thing about it is that you don’t have to be an artist to start!

In this 2.5 hour workshop we explore various ways of beginning your own art journal practice; from meditative mark making to drawing techniques and mixed-media experiments. You will leave inspired to bring more creativity and art into your everyday life!
