heART Journaling

HeART Journaling – a new Art Journaling class focusing on the good things, the little successes that happen in our lives, the events that make you happy.  By using art and words to creatively express the joy, no matter how small, when you later look back at your art, you immerse yourself again in the positive emotions you felt at the time.   This is very similar to the idea of affirmations, but these are more personal and art is infinitely more expressive than words alone.

Each month will have an in store classes and a meet up, where we can chat and work on our books encouraging each other in our explorative heART journey. In addition to the class and the meet ups we will have a new unique Facebook page which will be interspersed with prompts, quotes, thoughts and additional art.

We will not be working in the traditional journal format. . . . .  instead we will work on different substrates and sometimes use non traditional tools and mediums, such as vegetables, roofing supplies, and recycled materials. . . . . this will make a book that is expressively and uniquely yours.  . . . and a class that is fun, positive, explorative and life affirming.
