Traveling Art Journal part 2

Traveling Art Journal part 2

We finished off the weekend in the delightfully air conditioned studio completing these art journals.  The “traveling” part just means that they can go with you anywhere and make it possible to art journal on the go because the front fold-over flap is actually a zippered pouch.  Clever huh?  Click here to sign up for the next session offered on Sunday, May 27.

Latest Passions

Latest Passions

This photo includes two of my 3 latest passions….

First…this DELICIOUS journal September turned me on to…Made in India the pages are just begging to be filled. (you can buy them HERE!!)

Next…the uber juicy PITT Brush Pens.  I treated myself to a 12 pack for my birthday…love what Alisa Burke does with these…if I’m not mistake, they are one of her fav pens.

And finally my latest passion is the Gelli Plate by Gelli Arts. (again…you know where you can get your hands on one!!)

Check out Corky and Gere’s tags made in the Monday Make & Take last month

 

What is your passion?  I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately.  It is my intention moving forward to focus more and more on teaching things I have a passion for.  More on that later.

Juicy Soul Retreat – Last chance to sign up!!!
Sunday, March 13 (11am-5pm)

If you take one workshop this year…make it the Juicy Soul Retreat!   It only happens twice a year and your next chance won’t be until September.  Can your spirit really wait another 6 months to be awakened and enlivened?

Don’t miss this full day of exploring and rejuvenating yourself from the inside out.  Discover how images bypass the mind and go straight to the depths of your soul.   This is the one time you can arrive not feeling creative or inspired  and come out feeling accomplished  and empowered.

Visual journaling is not typical journaling.  It’s not about the words you write or about keeping a diary.  It doesn’t have to be a daily practice…you can do it anytime, anywhere. It’s about the images, colors, and textures that lead you on a journey of self discovery.

If your hobby is scrapbooking or collage work, you will be a natural.  Anyone can do this and doesn’t require buying a bunch of new tools to have this experience.  Everything you need you already have at home, such as crayons, colored pencils, etc.

There is always something new and special to discover at the Juicy Soul Retreat.  If you have taken this workshop in the past, then you already know Julie and Andrea always have something original and refreshing to offer at this experience.

This is your time for inspiration, creativity and self discovery.

Here are some sneak peeks of what is waiting for you….

Art Journaling like Teesha

Art Journaling like Teesha

This past Sunday 8 of us played with Teesha Moore’s art journaling techniques in a class called “Art Journaling like Teesha”

Much creative fun was had by all.  We watched Teesha’s YouTube video demonstrations for inspiration and worked through making a 16 page art journal using the same materials Teesha uses in her own journals.  Here are some pix of the workshop.
