Journaling. Creativity. An infusion of Spirit.
The Layered Journal
3 Day Workshop
The Layered Journal Course is for people who want to use color and imagery along with their written words to enhance their spiritual journaling experience.
Whether using simple lettering such as personal handwriting, or working with lettering and calligraphy, acrylics and mixed media will enhance your journaling experience by allowing you to create depth and texture. Randall’s process will take away your fear of the blank page, and teach you why acrylics act the way they do. Knowing the “why” will allow you to improvise. You’ll learn how to fix mistakes, feature elements on the page, and create depth of color and unique textural effects.
In this workshop we’ll learn the process of layering techniques with Acrylics in large watercolor Journals. Using mixed media, we’ll incorporate writing, imagery, or abstract painting, to help you create your own personal, visual atmosphere within your artwork or your reflective writing.
Randall uses singular painting techniques to create depths of layers and textures. In these journal sessions, he reveals ideas in how to build up both paints, inks and other media to enhance, and sometimes obscure, both calligraphy and handwriting.
