My original plan was that my Fall art journaling class would be themed for and inspired by Witches, in history and in pop culture. I have decided to postpone that class until next year, for a few reasons… wanting to dive deeper into my research than time this Summer allowed, and current events.
With the election ramping up here in the US – we are facing unprecedented challenges and division. As a woman, I am angered, horrified, worried, ( the list goes on) about the recent law changes and rulings that are systemically removing a woman’s body autonomy, her rights regarding her own body, her medical treatment, and her ability to make her OWN decisions. ( Don’t get me wrong – I am shocked and horrified about many things…) But it was from that female body, female perspective, and feminist outlook that this class was born.
Themed in colors, this class be inspired by the baby girl pink of Barbie and of Pussy hats. The Blue of the radical academic Blue Stocking society, and Suffragette white. We will close with purple, a suffragette color, and a color symbolizing bipartisanship. Here are my free flowing thoughts on the topic:
- 4 lessons – 4 weeks. Lessons are emailed on Mondays – and include private video tutorials, and PDF’s of information, images, and inspiration. Your access to these videos does not expire!
- There will be 2 Facebook live demos – for a chance to connect, have a Q& A session, see new techniques in progress. ( Recorded and posted in the FB group if you miss it) Dates TBA.
- Schedule – START DATE Sept. 23th. First lesson Monday September 30th. Last lesson October 21st.
- Pricing: $45 – Invoices will be emailed via PayPal, and can be paid via credit card.
- Sign ups: Email me at Jen.davies.reazor@gmail.com to join! PLEASE USE THE EMAIL YOU PREFER FOR CLASS! Let me know whether you prefer an invoice or would like to pay me directly via PP/Venmo. (Or PM me if we are connected on social media)
Questions:
- Yes, this course is open to all ages, teen and up. ( There will be some light cursing and tough topics due to the subject matter. ie: violence to women, #metoo, abortion…)
- Yes, this course welcomes all experience levels. No, you do NOT need to know how to draw. (See video)
- Supplies list – whatever you have? More info given at sign up!
- What if I miss a lesson? Pick up when you can, on current lesson. You can cycle back later on your time frame.
- Facebook group is OPTIONAL as we all have different social media limits. But I can best support and provide feedback if/when images/pages are shared with me.
My YouTube channel has 2 years worth of weekly art journaling videos if you would like a sampling of my materials, style, etc. These aren’t lessons I am teaching per se, but my own play and explorations on the page.
