A visual journal is part art, part diary, part dream board — and entirely your own. In this class you'll create the first pages of an intention journal built around your personal hopes, dreams, and wishes. It's a place where images, words, textures, and color come together to tell the story of what matters most to you right now.
We begin by identifying four to six intentions — your own words, your own hopes. If you're not sure where to start, Barbara will help you find them. Words like transform, explore, courage, freedom, gratitude, and play have a way of unlocking things you didn't know were waiting.
From there the page becomes yours. Collage, watercolor, acrylic paint, rubber stamps, fabric, thread, handmade paper, photographs, magazine images, embellishments — everything you need is here. You're also encouraged to bring your own photos, personal words, or anything meaningful you'd like to include. The more personal, the more powerful.
You will leave with the beginning of something you'll want to keep coming back to.
What to bring: A blank mixed media sketchbook in a size that feels right to you. An old children's board book or blank board book also works beautifully — Barbara can source one if needed.
What Barbara provides: Collage materials including magazine images, tissue paper, embellishments, handmade papers, and ephemera · Rubber stamps, alphabet letters, ink pads, paint pens, and Sharpie markers · Mixed media supplies including watercolors, oil pastels, acrylic paints, thread, needles, and fabric.
Classes are held weekdays between 10AM and 1PM EST at Artzmaker Studio in Williamsburg, Michigan. Reserve your spot and Barbara will contact you to confirm your date and start time.
