Class experience
Think sketchbook + art projects + journal = art journal! These are also known as altered books or visual journals. These books become collections of visual expressions, techniques, and self-reflection. Artists will combine different media and subjects and create thematic journeys of their own time and place. Each week we will focus on a different theme and particular medium, and complete a page together. Our studio time is meant to provide inspiration for artists to start a new project/idea...
My goal is to inspire artists to begin (or continue) their art journaling experience and spark their desire for self-expression with weekly art studio meeting times. This gives them a chance to try different media techniques and build their book with care and thought.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree from UCLA and spent my first 10 years out of college working with professional designers and photographers in the publishing world. I was exposed to an eclectic variety of art media and styles. Later, as a volunteer art teacher, I was introduced to art journals (altered books/visual journals) and fell in love with combining journaling and art together, so I made my own! I have enjoyed art journaling for many years and have worked on my own journal as a great way to create a distinctive piece of art that also included personal reflections, notations, and adornments.
Homework Offered
No specific homework is assigned, but students are encouraged to finish pages we start in class and explore other options and media.Assessments Offered
Throughout the class, I will have artists share their pages with me to see their progress and ask questions as they arise to ensure they are comfortable with the media, the process, and their progress. We will engage in respectful and relaxed conversation as we work to discuss the goals for their book and brainstorm ideas to get them there.Grades Offered
An old hardbound book with a removable paper jacket: 6 x 9 or larger, preferably with a sewn spine (not glued, but it will work if that is all you have), matte-finish pages (anything non-glossy), and a non-glossy front cover For the week of Nov 6: Pencil Bar eraser Black Sharpie markers (Fine and Ultra Fine) Colored pencils Other supplies we use at various times and nice to have nearby every class Ruler Markers Oil pastels Chalk pastels Watercolors, and acrylics paints Brushes Rubber cement Magazines, photos, scrapbook paper Glue and adornments, 3D memorabilia Mat to lay underneath ** it is okay if you do not have all of these things but this is a selection of supplies we will use throughout the class.
