Art Journal Classes

 Art Journal Classes by Dot Leathbridge

Join Dot on a  personal journey of self-discovery using a variety of journalling techniques.  An art journal is a safe place to create your own record of self-love, fears, letting go, hopes and dreams.

These classes may be both confronting and healing while embracing your creativity at the same time.

This series of journal classes is about getting to know yourself and moving forward in a positive way.

Our introductory class is on Friday 12th January and the focus is on the new distress crayons by Tim Holtz, stamping and stencilling....the class will suit beginners thru to advanced.

Our 3rd class in the series is on Saturday January 13th and the focus is on acrylic paints. (Dina Wakely)

You may bring your own art journal to work in, or buy one from the shop. We will be working on an 8x8 inch page and we will supply you with a loose page that you can add to your art journal at a later date.

Classes are held monthly but you are not obligated to do every class.
