An avid art journalist myself, I’ve taught classes in my home, schools, and shops to children and adults for years. It’s a fantastic way to express ourselves safely, without fear of making mistakes or being judged. Art journaling has also been proved to be calming and centering. Personally, I love that art journaling is so portable — you can take it with you anywhere, throughout your life to store memories, thoughts, and wishes.

The ‘tween class is currently full, but it can change from month to month. Secure your student’s spot now. Please contact me: Emily to get on the list.

We have fun and explore tons of art-making tricks. No experience necessary!

One of our first art journaling classes, back in NY. What a gorgeous mess!

You don’t need to buy anything — I have everything ! Or, you can use stuff you already have, like photographs, ticket stubs, greeting cards, stickers, magazine pictures and words — anything goes!!

One student loved washi tape.

3 Wayfinding art journals– anything goes!

The best thing about Art Journaling is that it’s not about making something “perfect” or “pretty”. It’s about making, self-expression, and sharing with friends!
