Mastering Mixed Media
Creative Session with Jackie Schomburg
Permission to Play: A Grid Journal Exercise
In this session, we’ll create a playful grid journal page using watercolor, matte medium, and collage. Working in small squares lowers the pressure of the blank page and makes it easier to experiment, explore, and follow your curiosity. Instead of trying to make one “perfect” piece, you’ll have multiple small spaces to play with color, texture, and layering. This simple structure helps quiet perfectionism, reduce resistance, and bring the focus back to what art making is meant to be: joyful exploration.

Artist’s Product Spotlights
30-Day Tiny Sketchbook Reset
The Tiny Sketchbook Reset is a low-pressure, 30-day creative practice where small pages and simple prompts add up to big momentum. You’ll create quick abstract sketchbook spreads using approachable supplies and easy techniques—perfect for beginners, ADHD brains, and anyone who wants to make art without turning it into another “should.” Each prompt is designed to be doable in short bursts (5 minutes counts!) and to help you start messy, keep moving, and trust yourself more. By the end, you’ll have a sketchbook full of color and proof that consistency doesn’t have to be intense—it can be tiny, enjoyable, and sustainable.
Creative Wellness 101
Creative Wellness 101 is a beginner-friendly, self-paced course that teaches a simple, repeatable creative practice you can return to anytime you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. This isn’t about making “good art.” It’s about making space for yourself, learning to trust what you’re drawn to, and using creativity as a steady support in real life. Includes guided lessons, demonstrations, and an encouraging community to help you keep showing up.
Brave Art & Creative Wellness Workshop
Join Jackie live on Zoom for a low-pressure, beginner-friendly creative wellness workshop—part art session, part reset button. You’ll follow a simple guided process, make intuitive mixed-media art, and leave feeling lighter, calmer, and more creatively confident.
About Jackie Schomburg
Jackie Schomburg is an abstract mixed media artist based in the U.S. (near Chicago). Her work is rooted in process, play, and intuition, and centers on creativity as a form of self-care rather than self-judgment. Through both her art and teaching, she helps others reconnect with their creative voice & rebuild creative confidence.
In addition to her studio practice, Jackie shares her creative process on YouTube, inviting viewers into honest, real-time art-making that focuses on mindset as much as materials. She also facilitates introvert-friendly workshops and on-demand courses designed to be safe, judgment-free spaces where participants can explore creativity without pressure, homework, or expectations.
Jackie’s work emphasizes accessibility, experimentation, and permission—encouraging people to trust their instincts, take creative risks, and use art as a tool for reflection, healing, and self-discovery. Her approach meets people where they are and supports creativity that fits into real life, whether that looks like a long studio session or a few quiet minutes with a sketchbook.
