Create a richly layered mixed media background to feature a printed and altered image of your furry friend.

Sunday, January 26 (10a-1p) A Work of Heart Studio - San Jose

Pulling prompts and seeing what happens is one of my favorite approaches to mixed media art making (or at least starting) This time together will expose you to a collection of mixed media techniques you can try time and again in alternating order to achieve different and exciting results each time. You will leave class with a deck of richly layered cards ready for future artwork, art journaling embellishment, card making, affirmation cards, wisdom cards and more. The process and the finished product are pure joy and engaging to the viewer.

Make a journal designed to hold everything – from your creative dreams to daily to-dos! No experience needed.

Take your watercolor experience to the journal learning how your colors mix and play with one another. Add a quote or phrase or fill the whole page with colorful shapes and designs. This sort of watercolor play has you learning more about colors, color mixing, brush and water control.

Upcycle an old book to create a 12-month custom creative journal for the new year. 
This adaptable journal may be the missing piece for keeping track of our multi-passionate creative lives.

This journal holds 12 individual folios with maximum customizability.

Making personal art in a journal is so enjoyable. My art journal is a place to explore mediums and materials, techniques and flavors of artist I admire. This session is dedicated to actually "living in" your personal art journal, handmade or otherwise. Bring it along and together we can explore mixed media techniques and supplies to make stunning spreads.

this month we are focusing on Proximity and Surface Design.

Join us Saturday, March 29 in making a series of Artist Trading Cards - mini, one-of-a-kind mixed media artworks created to share with other artists. We'll make some of our own collage materials and combine them with other collage to create mixed media ATCs. All supplies provided.
