Grid Journaling | Mixed Media Workshop | May 23rd - June 27th 6:30 - 8:30 PM

What is a grid journal? 

Did you know that when it comes to discovering your own artistic style, the QUANTITY of your artwork matters more than the QUALITY? We develop our styles by making lots and lots of artwork! This workshop will introduce you to warm up is a fast, fun way to make up to 18 tiny paintings in one sitting. And they are ADORABLE. You can use any colors and materials you choose for this exercise, the important part is to experiment with putting different patterns, colors, and textures together. This exercise can be used on its own as a collage warm up, a way to try out new combinations of colors/patterns.
