Art Journaling Class--Friday, May 3, 2024 -- 6:30 - 8:30 PM
Yellow Brick Road Studio
8271 Shimmering Rock Road, Gainesville, VA
Art journaling takes plain long-handed diary-writing to a more playful level. Adding bits of art loosens up the feel of the journal and injects some color and fun. There are no rules, but I will be giving you lots of ideas and prompts along the way. Each class will be different. We will dive into memories of our past, current thoughts and feelings, and goals for the future. We will record ordinary experiences, momentous occasions and everything in between. All the while exploring design through paint, ink, collage and more.
This theme of this evening's class will be flowers--specifically clematis!
This is definitely not just for those who already call themselves artists. Anyone can enjoy this.
Come find out about this relaxing way to get back in touch with your creative side.

Joy of the Journey: Creativity Camp for Women!
For the Love of Layers
Yellow Brick Road Studio
8271 Shimmering Rock Road
Gainesville, VA 20155
Instructor: Kerry Molina
The Yellow Brick Road Studio’s adult day camp “Joy of the Journey” is a one-of-a-kind, 5-day camp for women who are ready to dedicate some real time to relax, restore and renew. As women, we work and handle, juggle and manage…and we rock at it, don’t we? Now it is time to add in some true self-care.
At YBR, we believe that all of us have buried gifts inside. Like the characters in The Wizard of Oz, we often think we need outside sources to validate us. We tend to let this happen while we are busy taking care of everyone else. Let’s slow down enough to recognize inspiration, reconnect with our inner creative energy and enjoy the journey.
Each day's experience is expertly designed to touch on each purpose listed above, but in a variety of ways so that every day is unique. Expect fun surprises along the way too!
“Joy of the Journey” is the perfect opportunity for someone wanting to tap back into her creativity, awaken her dormant self, get messy and make connections. Give yourself the gift of time and space to connect with your inner visions and express them in a supportive small-group environment.
"For the Love of Layers!"

Mixed-media Mavens--a 6-class set, July & August 2024
You are purchasing a set of 6 mixed-media classes held on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 - 8:30 PM at Yellow Brick Road Studio in Gainesville, VA.
The dates are:
July 2, 9, 23, August 6, 13, 20, 2024
Each class will be different and focus on a different technique in the mixed-media world. It will start with a demo that includes how to use the materials and several examples/ideas of what you could make in that session. You should bring your art journal if you have one in case you decide that is where you want to create. There will also always be another substrate available to you to use if you don't want to work on something of your own. This is not only for people who already consider themselves artists. All are welcome.
8 spots. Must have at least 5 to run the course. If by June 23, the class does not have 5, you will, of course, be informed and refunded in full.
Note: these are non-refundable. If you need to miss a class, we are sorry, but the only option you have is to transfer to another student and work out the transfer of fee between you two.
