Description

Learn how to create a Doodle Diary to help ease stress, clear your mind, pause, and even change your mindset. Join our fabulous, inclusive co-op of "Sirenas" from a rage of personal and professional backgrounds for a night of exploring the art and the process of doodling, finding your own voice through putting multi-media to paper, and creating a meditative, creative Doodle Diary practice. BEFORE you come, you may pick up or order a mixed-media art journal of any preferred size OR no pressure, we'll have paper! Here are some ideas: https://www.michaels.com/search?q=art%20journal%20arteza Also bonus points if you want to prep a few of your art journal pages with slapping down some simple layers of inexpensive acrylic paint. This will allow time for the paint to dry so you can add more layers during the workshop. https://www.michaels.com/matte-acrylic-paint-by-craft-smart/M20001709.html?dwvar_M20001709_size=4%20oz&dwvar_M20001709_color=Apple%20Tart Zero pressure on the pre-prep either either! We will have all the supplies (some listed below) you need to explore and guide you through the simple and glorious practice of doodling as self-care. We'll have: Micron pens, paper, craft acrylic paint, tissue paper and other paper scraps for collage, China markers, Posca paint pens, sponge and other stamping objects, colored pencils, oil pastels, and crayons. Feel free to bring anything you want! Feel free to bring snacks/drinks (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) of your liking. The most important thing is to bring an open mind and non-judgement for yourself! Let's explore the power of doodling as a means towards some much needed stress-relief, fellowship, and peace during these trying times. This is an in-person only event and seating is LIMITED to 12 people. We request all attendees wear masks. There is a small supply fee for Siren Members. Non-members , the cost is $20.
