Creative Art Journaling Workshop – Paper & Collage

✨ Art Journaling Workshop — Paper, Collage & Creative Freedom

A relaxed, hands-on creative evening where everything is ready for you when you arrive. No experience needed — just show up and start creating.

You’ll work with paper, scissors, and collage to create art journal pages that feel personal, expressive, and meaningful to you.

Each participant gets:

• an A5 art journal to take home
• a fully set-up workspace (cutting mat, scissors, glue)
• magazines, paper, washi tape, markers & collage materials
• coffee or tea

You’re welcome to bring and use your own journal if you prefer.

Each session focuses on:

• a theme (emotional, visual, or conceptual), and
• a simple collage technique I introduce at the start with examples

After that, you’re free to:

• follow the theme closely
• adapt it in your own way
• or ignore it completely and create whatever you feel drawn to

There’s no “right” result and no pressure to finish anything.

The space is calm and welcoming.

Some people work quietly and focus deeply. Others browse magazines, cut images and chat while they create.

You’re free to engage as much or as little as you like. This workshop supports both solo creative focus and light social energy.

• everything is prepared for you — just show up
• you get uninterrupted time to create
• the materials offer variety without overwhelm
• the process feels liberating, playful, and emotionally meaningful

Art journaling allows total creative freedom. You’re not making something to impress — you’re making something that feels true to you.

By the end of the evening, you’ll take home:

• your art journal, started during the session
• at least one completed or in-progress journal spread
• ideas and techniques you can continue exploring at home

Many people return to their journals again and again.

This is not a technical art class. There are no templates, no pressure, and no expectations — just paper, materials, and time to create freely.
