Awesome Art Journal – Course Information
Art Journals are magical places where all judgements fall away! Your Art Journal is a place where you can create without inhibitions or fear of ‘doing it wrong’. Art Journals are not for making ‘perfect’ art (what is that anyway?), they are for soul expression, a space for you to be, to express, create, to heal, to laugh, to cry! This course will do just that; help you express your soul in creative, expressive and outrageous ways!
Student Feedback:
“This is a course that will help to ignite your journal creations through different and attractive techniques. Interspersed with some healing techniques that could be integrated, along with the techniques learnt, into your journaling by means of weekly exercises. Everything happens in a gentle and relaxing environment where you can get feedback and find even more inspiration through interaction with other participants.”

This course was first published on my ning network from 8th June 2009 – 12th July 2009. Since then hundreds of students have joined and enjoyed this course.
This class includes 6 video files covering 5 weeks of mixed media art journal lessons.
It also includes 13 PDFs that look at the methods and techniques that were covered in the videos and some of them list exercises and/or homework. In some weeks a healing theme is interwoven into the lesson.
Each video looks at two themes often covering several techniques to implement the theme into your art journal.
I hope to see you there! :)

“All and a very thorough walk through of most aspects of Art journaling, and in addition most of the techniques can also be used in paintings. The course guides you through enough techniques to keep you going for a long time. Willowing way of teaching is both fun and inspiring – so you better have your materials ready, because you will want to get started as soon as you here her first “Hallooooooo everyone” ;-).”
