Art journaling (sometimes called visual journaling) is a powerful resilience-building practice that helps us connect with our own vitality, process our life experiences, move through stuckness and overwhelm, and experience greater self-acceptance and self-compassion.

In this 2-hour Zoom workshop, we will use mixed media art supplies to create an art journal cover that calls out to you. Your Art Journal welcomes you to come home to yourself every time you look at your journal.

Why sign up?

A journal practice is a great way to invest in yourself and your well-being. And whenever we journal in community, warm connection with others helps expand the positive impact of the journaling experience.

Whether you are just starting a journaling practice, or a longtime visual or written journal-keeper, it can be fun to create a journal cover that reminds you why you want to journal in the first place: as a way to come home to YOU.

Besides, it’s really fun to create art together in community!

Who is this for?

This workshop is open to anyone who wants to create a cover for a journal using mixed-media art techniques. Newcomers and experienced artists are all welcome.

What supplies are needed?

In this workshop, we will use these basic mixed-media art supplies: gesso, acrylic paint, mod podge (collage glue), colored paper, scrap paper form your recycling bin, a hole punch, and paint pens. You will also need paint brushes, a jar with rinse water, paper towels, and a ruler (or straight edge of some kind). You can find my list of these art supplies here (not an affiliate link).
