Art Journaling is a medium of artistic expression that has no rules or requirements. It encourages experimentation and creative exploration. Mixed media techniques teach how to overcome the blank page, create vibrant backgrounds, add layers of texture for interest, and find focal points. 
* Please bring your own journal. It can be any size (8×12, 7×10, 5.5×8.5, are all great options). Journals should be “mixed media” paper (not a drawing or sketching notebook). They can be purchased at The Art Box in Crozet, Michaels, or Walmart. All other materials are included. *
