\u201cYou\u2019re offering tons of encouragement, and secondly, you weren\u2019t asking me to paint pictures I couldn\u2019t paint. It is every bit what I hoped it would be! Thank you for the fun this is bringing me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been so excited every week to work on my art journal. Just know you have opened the door to something wonderful for me and my family. We are together creating and each in our own \u201cflow\u2026\u201d it feels relaxing and exciting all in one! Thank you for sharing your love of art with us!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel much less intimidated by the art journaling process than I ever have, and more accepting of my results. The course was just the thing to make art journaling a regular part of my creative process.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nope! I will lead you through very simple step by step instructions in video tutorials. You can pause and try things out, or watch it all the way through and then give it a try. The class is completely self-paced, and you have full access.<\/p>\n

An experienced artist who has hit a creative block, is struggling with the inner critic, or would is having a hard time figuring out how to establish a consistent art journaling practice that focuses on personal healing would be good candidates for this class. You will likely be familiar with my background techniques and potentially the unique image techniques, but if you are looking for help approaching art in an open way again, without expectations, learning to let the image lead and recapture that sense of discovery you had a child, I think this class may have a lot to offer you. If you aren\u2019t sure, feel free to contact me and we can chat it out!<\/p>\n

Supplies:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Watercolor journal, such as the Handbook Watercolor Journal<\/a><\/p>\n

Minimum of 2 colors watercolor paint – I like this travel set<\/a><\/p>\n

Round #10 brush – Princeton<\/a>, Utrecht etc.<\/p>\n

One 01 Waterproof pen such as a Micron<\/a> or fountain pen with waterproof ink<\/p>\n

Tracing paper<\/a> (optional)<\/p>\n

Yes Paste or UHU glue stick or other adhesive<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”4.27.4″ custom_margin=”|20px||20px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What kind of journal should I buy?” open=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_level=”h5″ toggle_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” toggle_font_size=”20px”]<\/p>\n

I suggest a watercolor journal since we are doing a lot of watercolor. I would suggest that you get something student grade – Handbook<\/a> has a wonderful watercolor journal. I would recommend you stay away from anything from the Dollar Store as the quality is very poor and will likely lead to frustration.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”You are an art therapist, so if I take Art Journaling 101 online, am I doing art therapy?” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_level=”h5″ toggle_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” toggle_font_size=”20px” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

This is a great question! Many students have told me that what they really appreciate about my teaching style is that it feels very encouraging and teaches them to approach their art in a much more judgement free way, which in turn helps them produce better work. I have used my training to help inform my no-judgment approach to art making, but it\u2019s important to be clear that this class is NOT art therapy. Art therapy happens when a trained art therapist uses art within a counseling relationship to help a client meet their mental health goals. As with talk therapy, there is a signed agreement for treatment and a treatment plan.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Can I give this class as a gift to someone else? ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_level=”h5″ toggle_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” toggle_font_size=”20px” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

Unfortunately we do not have gift cards at this time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
