One In-Person Session
Sat., Feb. 22, 2025, 9 am-12 pm MT

Are you interested in cultivating a creative practice but not sure where to start? Do you have a drawer full of art materials but are a little hesitant to actually use them? Do you have an inner critic that keeps you from splashing paint and gluing down beautiful papers? Join artist and educator Judith Cassel-Mamet in this stress-free, horizon-expanding workshop as she shows you how to take a mixed media approach to filling up journal pages! “We don’t try to make a finished painting for the wall or refrigerator. Instead we play with all kinds of materials to get marks on pages,” she says. “Students incorporate text, color and collage as we cultivate a playful mindset that is perfect for art journaling.” Cassel-Mamet brings all the materials, so all you need is your blank journal (suggested size and brand is provided when you register) and a curious attitude. Experienced artists and absolute beginners enjoy this one-day workshop where students are invited to make marks with various art supplies, collage with interesting materials and fully embrace the concept that creative expression does not have to be intimidating or challenging. Cassel-Mamet plans to share techniques from her book, Joyful Pages: Adventures in Art Journaling. Please note: Registration covers all materials, except the journal.
