Featured Artist, UTIAJ

I’m excited to share that I will be a featured artist for this fall’s Under the Influence Art Journaling, hosted by Andrea Chebeleu of A Work of Heart. Not only will you get to explore my particular way of art journaling, but you’ll get to meet me virtually!

Even better, you’ll also get to explore the works and processes of eight other art journalers.

Andrea has hosted this series for years. She leads participants through nine weeks of art journaling exploration, focusing on the unique stylistic approach of one artist at each session. Participants make their own creations inspired by each artist.

What I love most about this concept is the exploring. It’s so easy to fall into a creative rut; to explore other techniques and modes of artistic expression (and to sometimes hear from artists themselves about their process!) is such a beautiful spark that can set you off on a totally new artistic journey.

Andrea writes:

Each session starts with connecting to the featured artist and their work … I then guide you through an art journal spread incorporating some of the “flavors” of our featured artist. This practice gives you practical experience translating what you see and enjoy into your own art journaling process.

What an awesome way to boost your creativity. The series kicks off on October 11 — register here.
