In this workshop, use Museum artworks and written prompts to create a handmade journal where you can record your personal ideas and observations! Through demonstrations and detailed instructions, learn to sew and alter journals. Basic drawing exercises with watercolor pencils explore space, light, color, and line, offering both drawing and painting experiences. Creative individual expression is encouraged through exercises and open-ended prompts, guiding students towards an independent and confident journaling practice.
