Incorporate art into your journaling practice for self-care and creative growth
What will you learn?
Designed for beginners and regular art practitioners alike, this art journaling series provides a safe space that will help you break out of your fear and hesitation to face the blank page.
A class in the series will cover either an art journaling focus area or a technical drawing foundation in “bitesize” format.
This class covers:
1. Art Journaling Focus Area
You will learn the “What” of art journaling, such as self reflection, gratitude, collections and other subject matters that can enrich your journaling experience.
2. Bitesize Technical Series
You will learn the “How” of translating concepts, ideas and images from your head onto a piece of paper, broken down in a fun and step-by-step manner. This includes some drawing foundations such as: composition, colours, perspective, and other technical concept taught in a non-intimidating way!
Why learn Art Journaling?
1. Regular self-care with creativity
It helps you keep a regular and sustainable self care practice, while exercising your creative muscles.
2. You become more present
It trains you too slow down and pay more attention, to observe the world around you, and to preserve memories in a lasting and tangible format

When you attend them regularly, my art journaling classes will help you build your own visual vocabulary, so you will eventually be able to effortlessly translate your personal thoughts and experiences into art.
