The pages in my art journals and sketchbooks are inscribed with visual stories told through my personal graffiti…a combination of symbols, layers of vibrant color and images. During this e-course you will be led through an artful journey to discover, play and tell your story. We will embark on a four-week workshop adventure presented in a collection of daily creative prompts to explore visual art journal techniques through unearthing inspirations, personal symbols, color and capturing images. I share a number of hand lettering, painting, collage and digital ideas to inspire your creative spirit.
