Today's Doodles Unleashed online book tour stop is with my artsy pal & memory keeper Ali Edwards. I met Ali at Artfest a few years back and I have long admired her wonderful blog, digital scrapbook artwork and beautiful memory keeping albums. She's hosting a fabulous giveaway for my NEW REDEFINE the Doodle online workshop series!!
I'm super excited to announce the new online workshop series...
Taking inspiration from my new book, Doodles Unleashed, my new mixed media online workshop series REDEFINE the Doodle, explores a variety of painting, printmaking, collage, digital, art journaling and doodling techniques. There are three online workshops in the series that will focus on Inspiration + mark-making, Girlie Glam FACES and TYPE + letters. During each 4 week session, the content is delivered in daily lessons Monday through Friday, including HD multi-part technique videos, creative prompts, colorful pdf workbooks and LIVE demos/chat. The final week of each workshop includes a BONUS project video incorporating workshop techniques plus BONUS lessons on creative business topics throughout each workshop.
