Try It! Word Prompt Illustration

About this event

An immersive, mixed-media workshop designed to bridge the gap between written thought and visual expression through intuitive art journaling. Students will learn to bypass creative blocks by using specific word prompts as the catalyst for vibrant, layered compositions. You will explore a “collage-first” approach, integrating paper scraps, old book pages, and bold hand-lettering with watercolor washes and fine-liner detailing to create deeply personal illustrations. Perfect for artists of all levels, this course focuses on the tactile joy of playing with textures and symbols, transforming a blank page into a narrative landscape where text and art coexist. All Supplies are Provided. This series of workshops is offered in celebration of our upcoming 80th anniversary in 2027.
