Paint Like a Child journaling online class!!



It took me 4 years to paint like Raphael and a lifetime to paint like a child - Picasso
It is so true. Children are true artists in every sense of the word. They don't question themselves and have such a raw quality to how they create. To get back to that place of creating like a child is my ultimate goal as an artist. I believe through working in a journal, the walls are a bit broken down. I feel more at ease with playing and not worrying about the outcome. If I find myself getting to tight, I reach for my favorite tool!! (more about this in class!) 
I will be your guide through this childlike play and give you some tools....literal and figurative to achieve a looseness and rawness just as kids do. I still struggle with staying loose, but it is where I want to be. I don't think there is any right or wrong way to create art or journal. It is about bringing a child-like mind to the table and playing for the sake of playing. It's about getting quiet and listening to what we need to journal about. It is healing for us. We don't have to carry around all that makes up our past....or present for that matter. We can come to the page and release what is there....whether it be negative or positive. To release is to give life to the positive and bury the negative. That is the beauty of art. It fixes. It saves. It is my realm of sanity.
I'll give you lots of ideas and prompts to carry you through this journaling escape. Come with a child-like beginners mind and let's PLAY!!
Invite your kids to join you too!!

  73. How imperative is it that we invest in all of the mentioned supplies? I definitely want to sign up, but I can't spend the $ on tons of paints and other stuff when I have similar supplies sitting I used from other courses. ??

    1. I always say to use what you have on hand. I always think it is a good idea to watch the videos first before purchasing any supplies. This is just a guide to the exact supplies I use (for info purposes and in case you'd like to try something new) I do think the catalyst wedge and the deli paper is an absolute must for the class but other than that, play around with paints and journals that you may have.

  74. These pieces are very chaotic but also very vibrant, I think children always have so much creativity so it makes sense to try and channel some of that.
