Mixed-Media Slow Stitching

Slow stitching is an unhurried, thoughtful process that not only has a beautiful outcome, but also helps to calm our frenzied minds. Coupled with mixed media, it also allows for bold, expressive artwork either as stand-alone pieces or in our art journals. During the class, we’ll explore mark-making with stitching patterns, creating collages with paper and fabric, and play with color in a combination of paint, paper, fabric and thread. We will also discuss how to draw inspiration from the everyday world around us to add color, marks and patterns to our artwork.

Relaxing Watercolor Circles

As creatives, it can be easy to get stuck in the mindset of creating art for others, but it’s important to remember the power of the artistic process for our own self-care. Using watercolors as our guide, we’ll release expectations and let our creativity be free to flow. We will begin by simply creating circles and exploring color, then will continue to build onto this practice with doodling and paper cutting. This class will focus on the process rather than the product and is meant for creatives of any level.

Making & Using Tiny Books

Working small can feel daunting, but it can also be very freeing and allow for big bursts of creativity in small spaces. We’ll spend the first part of class making our own tiny books using variations of the pamphlet stitch. In the second half, we’ll begin to fill the pages with playful color, expressive mark-making and miniature collages. We’ll also discuss how to maximize our creative output by utilizing materials we already have at home and fitting work sessions into limited blocks of time..

Introduction to Art Journaling

An art (or visual) journal is a creative space to collect ideas, record observations and experiment with supplies. It is a safe place to express ourselves and just have fun and play. These journals can begin as sketchbooks, notebooks or even an old book and then be filled with paint, collage, sketches, words or anything else you can dream of. The possibilities for art journaling are endless and can be a bit overwhelming, but you only need a few basic supplies to get started. In this class, we’ll discuss how to choose your journal, ways to prepare your pages, and we’ll play with a variety of supplies.

Creating Calm Through Collage

We are constantly surrounded by the noise and turbulence of the world around us, and it often leaves our minds buzzing and drowns out our creative voice. But using artistic techniques, such as collage, can help to restore moments of quiet and calm and teach us to turn destruction into creation. Using a variety of papers, including scraps from our everyday lives, we will learn how to harness the power of tearing things apart and reassembling them to create both beauty and calm while also finding messages of meaning in the process. We will also discuss ways to work this practice into our daily lives so that when we need a moment of calm, we can use what’s around us to create a space for it.

Altered Book Art Journaling

Sketchbooks and journals are great for art journaling, but the blank white page can also be intimidating. Vintage books, novels, cookbooks and children’s books can also be used for art journaling and provide a variety of paper options, inspiring graphics and illustrations, and come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
We’ll begin by selecting a book to use, then we’ll learn some simple ways to begin filling the pages with our own artwork.
