Get to know the artists:

Week 1 - Collage

Susan will show you how she makes her own collage papers using a limited palette, GOLDEN Paints, coffee filters and a Gel Press. Next, some inspiration for shapes and suggestions for cutting and assembling the papers in our journals.

Week 2 - Gel Plate Mono Printing

Micah will show you how easy it is to get beautiful imagery without the necessity of drawing skills. We will use GelPress gel plates and GOLDEN fluid acrylics for goof proof mono printing that give any journal page that ”wow’ factor.

Week 3 - Gesso Resist Techniques

In this session Jacqueline Sullivan will show you how to use gesso as a resist for subtle backgrounds in your Art Journal. The gesso will be applied with stamps or through stencils and then painted over with fluid acrylics. The paint will be prepared so that it creates a good writing surface in your journal.

Week 4 - Water-soluble and mixed media in the Art journal

Helen will show you the versatility of watercolor pencils using acrylic mediums and watercolor in her journal. The stencil used is Helen ́s own design.
