We have ANOTHER NEW TEACHER!!!
My name is Aileen and I love creating art—I’ve always done something creative since I was a kid. I doodle, draw, paint, collage and occasionally write; and all these put together create art. I am an artist and always keen on creating something. On the crafty side I’ve done cards, bookmarks, floor mats to name a few. At times I get busy with life, so I open my sketchbook and do something—anything! I realized a few years ago that my sketchbook has morphed into an “art journal”. What is an art journal? It is a mish mash of images and text; and that can be a number of things like photos, drawings, ephemera, doodles, ideas and daily thoughts, inspirational quotes, goals, to-do lists, diary and so much more.
Anyone can make an art journal and scrapbooking is almost like art journaling. Art journaling is more about you—your thoughts, ideas and images made by you and for you; it’s like a visual diary. Art journaling is therapeutic and is a journey of healing yourself. On the other hand scrapbooking is “memory pages” for family and friends, an heirloom of sorts.
On Saturday, February 11th Carol is going to have an Open House introducing me and my work. Come out and meet me to see all the samples I’ve done.
TIME: 1:00 – 4:00
We will have a few class samples to choose from and more details on me teaching in the workshop!
Here are a few photos of the art journaling I’ve created.
