My hubby was traveling & I was lonely so I did some retail therapy. I bought myself into a new class
Inscribed by the uber talented
Traci Bautista. Her book
Collage Unleashed was one of the first mixed media books I purchased for my library. By the way, there is a new one coming out the first of the year,
Doodles Unleashed, & I can't own this one soon enough.

The class is a art journaling workshop & I'm not much of a journaler. I keep notebooks & journals, but they are not pretty, artsy, fancy ones. I'm pretty much a list maker & that's what you'll see in the notebooks. I sketch a bit, but not very often, & when I do, it's normal pencil or black ink quick sketches. I was so drawn to this class by the preview video. I wanted to learn her techniques & transfer them to my canvas craze. It should be interesting to see where this takes me between
Christy's Classes & Traci's.
