Announcing Art Journal Summer School 2016!


Woohoo! I'm so happy and excited to share with you that I'm going to be teaching as part of Art Journal Summer School 2016, with the wonderful Marieke Blokland at the helm! This is a wonderful course, perfect for the summer months, as each video lasts only 15 minutes and uses a limited number of supplies to fit in a small toiletries bag so it's perfect for your on-the-go summertime art journaling! (For a chance to win a free place keep reading ... !)
*EDIT: Competition now closed*

And just look at who else is on board. Woop woop! I think I am in very good company ;-)


The course is open for sale now *click here*,  begins 1st July 2016, and continues over the summer months. 

So, what do you get?
  • 10 weeks on-line summer course
  • 14 amazing and inspiring teachers
  • 21 short (15 minutes) video lessons
  • All lessons downloadable
  • Minimal supplies needed
You can see a sneaky peek of all the classes on video *here*

And I've got ONE FREE PLACE to give away! All you need to do is leave me a comment on here and I will pick a winner using random.org, in a week's time, on 21st May.  EDIT: Competition now closed*

Want to see some sneaky peeks of my video? Ok then... here ya go! My video runs in two parts - some water colour style doodling, followed by a mixed media page of beautiful summer blooms!







Hope to see you there!
