Mixed Media Art Classes
What is HeArt Journaling?
Mixed media journaling is often referred to as visual diary making. In journals, we combine color, texture, and form to create snapshots of what’s happening around and inside us. We record thoughts, emotions, and feelings. We get our fingers dirty. We allow our inner child to come out to play.
You may be thinking, Luxury. No! Creativity is a direct path to reconnecting with ourselves and our intuition, and it’s a gift of self-care. Plus, making stuff is SUPER fun. Give yourself permission to spend part of your day surrounded by color.
Let me be clear: you ARE an artist. Every single one of us is creative. You do NOT need to be an Artist (capital A) to create fun, inspired, colorful, and appealing art for yourself. It’s a myth and a lie that creativity should be reserved for those who could make money be selling art. Every human being is entitled to access the joy, fun, healing, and community that can accompany a creative lifestyle.
Including you!
What are just a few of the lessons I’ve learned later in life by embracing my creativity?
Creativity allows me to experience imperfection (rips, smudges, layouts that don’t live up to my imagination) and to laugh about it.
Creativity is fun and surprising!
Creativity is a HUGE way to use my voice, and it supports my resilience.
What might a creative practice do for you?
“I took several sessions of HeArt Journaling, which taught me really fun techniques. But, more importantly it taught me something about myself.
“I learned that making art is actually really important to me and that I wasn’t taking myself seriously. I was showing up with wanting more from the class when the class was wanting more out of me. Once this clicked, I started listening intently. I was then able to honor the process as a way of appreciating myself more, no matter what I created, as long as I gave it my honest time and energy.” –Michelle U.
