Paper, Mixed Media, Art Journaling Craftalong 2024

Thank you :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I did rough out the main bits in pencil first last night (otherwise I know I would make a spelling mistake or get the spacing wrong!) And I think it probably took two cups of coffee :smile:

Even pencil sketching first, that precision is quite beyond me unless I have a refernce image to work from! I envy your raw talent and artist’s eye and you are a continual source of inspiration.

If you want another free class - Sketchbook Revival

I think I signed up last year but was unable to participate while caring for my mom. But this year, I’ll try it. Lots of good teachers - Robin-Marie Smith, Julie Fei-Fan Balzer, Wendy Solganic (of Fodder School Fame) and more.

I have been in a crafty slump lately. My energy and attention have been on our recent house updates; setting up the kids’ rooms, organizing, reorganizing, purging, repeat…

But I’ve been missing my craft room. So when Alisa Burke came out with new fall classes, I decided to try to reignite the momentum I’ve had with her 30-day classes in the past. I signed up for Autumn Petite and have only done 2 days so far but I’m hopeful it will give me the push I need to get creating again.

Everything about this is awesome!

Maybe I’ll get back to the ~ahem~ four AB classes I picked up during the bundle sale now…

I had definitely lost momentum with her classes, but I’m trying to use them more as a jumping off point this time and incorporating more of my own style. I just need something to get me in the ā€œzone.ā€ I’m trying to channel a bit of @jemimah energy here. She is excellent at being inspired by a video or a prompt, but totally doing it her way.
