The offer...
If you would like to join me online via a series of weekly zoom live calls for 5 weeks beginning on Tuesday June 3rd from 11 - 12.30 then please sign up now.
My aim is that this will become an evolving course here within Podia with all of the handouts, live recordings and demo films available to you for the duration of the course and beyond.
There will be a weekly co-create afternoon from 2-3.30pm each Tuesday too so you can develop your ideas alongside others including a quick chat from 3pm onwards.
I love to be open to the possibilities so lets just begin and see where this takes us - are you in?
Plus once you have signed up you can get started in your journal straight away.
Here's a sneak peek into the journal, or visual diary, that evolved in the previous course.
Becoming obsessed with the reeds and grasses...
I love to structure the weeks with handouts full of inspiration and prompts and calls to action.
*You will be using a journal to document the course and encouraged to experiment and play to the theme of Wabi-Sabi - an Evolving Landscape.
*We will be looking at the work of other artists, writers and poets as we tease out our own interpretation of this Japanese term, Wabi-Sabi.
*As well as having the time to attend the live sessions you will need to be able to spend at least a day a week developing your own work and seeking out your own inspirations and source material in your home environment.
*As you pull together seemingly diverse elements into your journals I hope that you begin to see patterns emerging that shine a light on a way forward in your own creative practise.
*I love to work with drawing, print, paint, collage, photography and even a touch of 3D and accessible digital manipulation.
So if this sounds good to you and you want to explore this idea of wabi-sabi landscape alongside me then please do sign up now and lets see what unfolds :)
Thank you
Janette
I do hope you are going to love observing the world around you in a new way as we learn to love the perfectly imperfect!
What do we understand by the Japanese term wabi-sabi?
Are you ready to become inspired?

I do suggest that you go out exploring for the wabi-sabi all around you over the coming weeks.
I always like to suggest homework for my students and this time I thought I would set a series of 'HomeWalks'.
In the next section I will offer up some ideas for your explorations.
