2020 Art Journaling Workshops at Wild at Art

Joyous Journaling
Art play for experts and beginners alike ! 
Mondays 6.00 - 8.30pm in May and June
Wild at Art Studio, Central
$480 per session

Come and play with colour, paint and texture to make papers and pages for your journal! Journaling is about a blend of PLAY and something to SAY.
By experimenting and creating yourself a range of journal papers you will find out more about you as you use printmaking, and other mark making to start your 2020 journaling year! During these two sessions you can decide how to take your journaling forwards and how to join a weekly group of ongoing practice and find out how to build a weekly habit of creative journaling as you learn to play on the page, without judgment, just through a little creative fun, finding your own style and pathway !
Diving Deeper Art Journaling
Saturday August 2nd
9.15-5.00pm
Studio29
Lamma Island 
Have you noticed how we generally use our cognitive brain to tussle out life’s tough times and wrinkles……..we might call a friend to talk it all over, we might seek out a counselor to explore in a more structured setting. 
I’ve done that too and still do ! Yet somehow, my own 45 years of art journaling have taught me first hand, the benefits of getting to know myself through the creation of images and journal pages, I have explored challenges, expressed grief and anger through those pages and learned much about how to articulate and transform my own thinking.

I’ve learned how art making can provide a conduit to thoughts and feelings that are buried very deeply and no matter how hard I tried my words just didn’t take me to where I needed to be……..There are times in life when we simply have no words…….
After a very long art teaching career, I am now working with groups and individuals, using art-making intentionally to access and explore buried feelings and stories for healing. There is much powerful transformation in people witnessing their own stories on a page……every time we make a mark we express something…
This work take place in the context of Diving Deeper Saturday workshops. These are small intimate gatherings held in my Lamma island Studio29, we work  on guided personal themes in a visual arts journal.  This is a deeply personal journey really. You are guided every step of the way and there is always a lovely atmosphere of connection and safety as well as fun. 
Themes have included Listening Inside, Quieting the Mind, The Magical Gifts of Wabi Sabi,  Body Kindness, Following our Intuition, Embracing our Gorgeous Imperfections, Building Strength and Resilience  and accessing Present Moment Awareness through your Art Practice.

Scrumptious lunches are a feature of the day, meals and all art materials are supplied. I provide your art journal ( unless you have one that you are using)and all other art materials besides.  People always gather personal items nearer the time.
