Turn a Little into a LOT!

Course skill level: Beginner & Intermediate

“Turn a Little into a LOT!”

Welcome to ‘Turn a little into a LOT’. A lesson with me, Tamara Laporte in which I show you how you can create a beautiful journal page with 8 supplies only! Whaaaat? Surely, it’s not possible?! But yes yes it is! :) You can create wonderful, beautiful, magical things with only a few supplies.

When is it useful to create with limited supplies?

Those of you who know me, know that I LOVE hoarding art supplies and have lots of art supplies available to create intricate and layered art pieces. However, it can be so liberating and fun to be able to make art with very few supplies. It can also really challenge you to make-do with what you have on hand which pushes you out of your comfort zone right into developing your style and growing as an artist! Hurrah!

  • I love using the techniques in this lesson when:
  • I am on holiday and can’t bring my entire art studio with me, haha
  • I am on the couch in my house while all my art supplies are in the studio (couch art)
  • I want to challenge myself and grow creatively
  • I am travelling (on planes/ trains/ busses)
  • For whatever other reason can only bring a few art supplies with me

So yes, I made this pretty face in my journal with 8 supplies only! I’d love to show you how I did it! Come and learn how you too can create a beautiful face with very very few supplies needed!

So cheap: £9.75 only! 

I hope to see you there!

These are the 2 projects we’ll do (though the lesson with the duck is a timelapsed bonus):

Suggested Supplies

  • Graphite pencil for drawing

  • 1 Tombow marker in pink/ magenta
  • 1 Ecoline marker in light blue/ teal
  • 1 Posca pen black
  • 1 Posca pen white
  • 1 Aquabrush
  • The journal I use is a Roberson Watercolour Sketchbook – A5 size, but you don’t need the journal to do the lesson, you can use any other watercolour paper (140lbs/ 300gsm) hotpressed (or coldpressed, though hotpressed probably works better). The brand of paper I like is Saunders & Waterford though Canson/ Daler Rowney or Fabriano are all also good.

A throwback to this journal page I love so much. T A throwback to this journal page I love so much. The quote says: 'What if I fall, oh darling what if you fly'? By Erin Hanson. The full quote is: "There is freedom waiting for you, On the breezes of the sky, And you ask "What if I fall?" Oh but my darling, What if you fly?" - It's one of my favourite quotes about taking risks, trusting life and the process and the idea that there is an unconditionally loving force behind you, gently encouraging you to grow, try new things and be your full authentic self without fear.

Last year, I made an expressive watercolour painti Last year, I made an expressive watercolour painting of an owl for Watercolour Wildlife and later last year, I made another cool owl for Woman Unleashed. I’ve been wanting to make a series of owls ever since. Here is the 3rd in a series! 😊 I’ll be making a few more! 😍😍😍 They are some of my most favourite animals.

Soooo, my next class will be learning how to paint Soooo, my next class will be learning how to paint "expressive soul portraits" (omg so excited about this!) and currently editing the videos and LOVED this shot of one of the portraits mid-way. What I love about this way of working is that you can get all your raw emotions out and just make crazy messes to help facilitate all of the stuff that is going on for you and then you come out of the process refreshed and renewed and sometimes (not always) with an emotive, beautiful outcome, too! 😊 Check out all the layers and textures in this. Think at this point, it's about 30% into the painting process. It goes through a lot more transformation before it's finished.
