The Illustrated journal is the creative process of merging images and words together to tell a bigger story. Are you interested in learning how to create an illustrated journal from your travels, gardening, family, cooking or daily life? See how words enrich your story as a design element and story content. During the workshop you’ll explore drawing techniques, design, watercolor and ink. You’ll come away from the workshop excited and inspired about your work! Best of all your illustrated journal will uniquely reflect your style and creative voice. Workshop participants will benefit from demonstrations, encouragement and individual help.
