Why ART CHRONICLES?

Art Chronicles is an invitation to spend six weeks slowing down, exploring new art journaling techniques, and making simply for the joy of making. Together, we will layer color, texture, marks, paper, and found details into pages. This becomes story telling.

This class is not about perfection or producing a polished final project. It is about showing up to the page, experimenting, practicing, and discovering what happens when we allow ourselves the time and space to create without expectation. Time & practice.

These journal pages, background building, and thoughtful techniques, will strengthen your skills while cultivating a deeper connection to your own creative process.

Come as you are. Bring your favorite supplies. Turn the page with us, and see where the story leads.

Meet Your Instructor

Hi! I am Jamie Pate and I love to make and create from paper, stamps, inks, dies, and anything else that I can layer on a page. I hail from the Front Range of Colorado. You can very often find me hiking, visiting the newest coffee shop, thrifting, reading or cooking a huge meal for all my people.
