Life Book 2020 The Tam Edition
is now on Sale!
Each year when Life Book finishes running, Tamβs individual classes become available as a packaged deal. ‘LB2020 The Tam Edition’ includes in-depth mixed media art lessons & bonus lessons by Tam from Life Book 2020.
The lessons are taken from Life Book 2020; Life Book 2020 was a 12 month course where Tam and 30 other teachers shared their mixed media, craft and well being techniques, tips and tricks. Life Book 2020 has now finished but Tamβs lessons from Life Book 2020 have been put together for you here in this stand alone course Life Book 2020 The Tam Edition!
These are all the projects we’ll do together:

Lesson projects & themes:
- Releasing Fears & Welcoming in the New – A Guided Meditation that is designed to help you release fears and welcome in βthe newβ.
- Art Bites for Beginners + Intro to Colour Theory – especially for people who are fairly new to βart makingβ and want to learn more about some of the supplies we use on Life Book and it also includes an introduction to βcolour theoryβ.
- Awakening Your Creativity – In this lesson, I hope to address some of your fears (weβll write them all down!) and I encourage you to be present to your feelings (whatever they are). I also want to get you warmed up by sharing some easy layering techniques with you. Itβs all about playing, learning, exploring and enjoying your journey. In this lesson, no drawing is required!
- Angels are Always with You – In this lesson we will create 2 front facing characters (1 with closed eyes) on a layered mixed media background. The main character is an βangelβ (or a divine being of some sorts) who lovingly has her wing around a sleeping child. The angel represents a character who is βalways with youβ. The idea is that you can call upon this character throughout the year for empathy, compassion, understanding and compassion. You can also call upon this character to help fulfil any dreams you might have. The child represents our βinner childβ, which is often the part of us that needs protection, love and care. This project is suitable for all skill-levels. It is a more in depth project but all the steps are clearly laid out so that all skill levels can follow the lesson.
- What if You Fly? – In this bonus session we create a front facing mixed media butterfly girl and, as an extra bonus, we are going to also create a, mandala type, Zen Butterfly.
- Cultivating Creative Courage – In this bonus chat, I talk about how to cultivate βcreative courageβ or the βcourage to βfailββ. If you can manage to do this, well itβs half the work done! So if youβre feeling disappointed with your art work, donβt quit! (Many people do but this is exactly NOT the time to quit!). You can do this, I believe in you!
- Party Time! – We will be drawing a βlollipop girlβ who is in βparty timeβ mode because she is giving thanks to all the things she is grateful for in her life! Itβs a happy uplifting painting for sure! :) We are also going to look at βgratitudeβ and how a gratitude exercise can be helpful in our lives. The final painting with celebrate and express gratitude for things, people, experiences you are grateful for in your life!
- Favourite Things – In this bonus lesson we are appreciating the little(r) things in our lives that we might sometimes forget or take for granted by doing some art work βfrom lifeβ and also Iβm throwing some βwhimsical urban sketchingβ in there too.
- Seeds of Love – Extra for Life Book 2020 – This lesson was first published in February 2015 as part of Life Book 2015. Iβm including a video on βvalue contrastβ and a deepener on colour theory.
- The Largest Heart – We will create a whimsical giraffe in (mostly) watercolours and we will focus on honouring our feelings/ inner experiences and grounding into the now and our bodies.
- Giraffe Love – We are going to make a ‘collage & paint’ giraffe in this bonus lesson. Iβm introducing you to a different way to βbuildβ a painting here with a bit more emphasis on the role collage can play in a painting.
- Honouring & Grounding Guided Meditation – An Honouring & Grounding Guided Meditation that can help you ground into the present moment and in your body. Itβs also created to help you honour any feelings/ thoughts, needs and experiences that are currently alive or present in you, both the negative and the positive.
- You are The Light – We create a high contrast portrait of a girl, mostly working with watercolour paints.
This lesson also includes an βIntentional Honouring of Your Story Ceremonyβ. - Turn A Little Into a Lot β Bonus! – In this class I show you how you can make a lovely little portrait with ONLY 8 art supplies! Itβs a great class to do for when you only have a few supplies available or if youβre on the couch (not by your art desk) or on holiday.
