Art Journaling: Weekly Tween Art Journaling Group
Class experience
In this weekly ongoing class journalers will learn to express themselves in a space where there is no judgement, no criticism, just encouragement and exploration with a side order of fun. Supporting each other and encouragement will be the focus. Each week starts off with a check-in, and then a writing prompt, followed by a new background painting technique, then we add collage while discussing composition, and finishing up with creative lettering. Journalers are free to share after each...
Exploring, challenging, taking risks, through art these things can lead to expansion in your life. Art journaling is a safe space to practice these things, as well as learning some fun techniques and building skills you can use your whole life for self expression and wellness.
I have been teaching art journaling for over a decade to all ages and art abilities. If you have a creative young person who doesn't like writing, I have alternatives they can use to participate. My youngest son has learning disabilites and doesn't write, and I have a variety of strategies (none that involve any type of coercion) but pulls on a journalers strengths, so they can still fully participate. If you have any concerns about your learners ability to participate, please reach out to discuss how we can work together.
