| Art Journaling:Recipe for aPerfect Holidaywith Karen O’Brien Saturday, Dec 16 10 am – 1 pm |
In this class we will learn how to begin our own art journal* with simple supplies. I will share plenty of ideas and approaches to begin filling your journals. We will create a journal spread in class focusing on the holiday season. All you need to bring to class is: - Blank journal that can handle water media: 90-140 lb paper
- OR
- Old book : thin spine, no larger than 9″ x 12″, no shiny, slick or glossy pages
*What is an Art Journal? It’s a place to record your thoughts, memories, and emotions through images, art and words. Why do it? It is an easy way to use your creativity every day. It can be done with simple tools. It is portable, requiring very little space to do it. It can be used to document life, travels, plan you art, express your feelings, test out new art products and techniques. It can be personal – only for you, or you can share it with others. |

I am excited to announce the Release of my New Stencil Designs…for StencilGirl! 
Let me tell you a little about them… 
My Wildland Creatures are a part of a new series that include the birds, fish and animals that I love to watch and include in my artwork. I hope that you will love to use my new designs in your art as well! 
These animals are a part of my life in the Pacific Northwest. Each stencil design represents an animal that I love. I have even written legends to go with them to inspire you in your art making. You can read more about my Wildland Creatures on StencilGirlTalk 
I have walked the fields where the horses and cattle roam, climbed over rocky cliffs where the rams once thrived, waded in the ocean water with the fish and watched the hawks fly. 
These stencil designs can be used as a focal point or a background… or both. They are wonderful in a painting or collage or a page in your art journal. Pan pastels, distress inks, permanent inks and gesso are my favorite tools for stenciling. The emblems that go with each creature symbolize their characteristics and the passage of time. I really enjoy mix and matching them with other stencils. Please visit here to read more about them and visit here to see them in the StencilGirl Products Shop | |
