Today I am excited to announce our latest iBook and Online Class – Art Journaling 101 – Intro to Mediums and Tools! This book explains the differences between a variety of mediums on the market! There is a chapter on Gesso; Multi-Medium; 6 types of Acrylic Paint; a variety of Water-based Mediums; Pan Pastels; Molding Pastes; Glass Bead Texture Gel; Alcohol Inks; Books to use for your Art Journal and some recommended brushes! There are no techniques in this book. It is purely informational, but gives you a good understanding of what medium to use and when!! Plus, it’s a great foundation to some of my upcoming classes! The best part, it is only $7.99!!
If you are looking to purchase any of the mediums I recommend the following online sites:
Simon Says Stamps (affiliate)
Dick Blick Art Supplies
Curry’s Art Supplies (Canada)
We recommend downloading the Art Journaling 101 – Intro to Mediums and Tools iBook on your computer then syncing your iPad. This way seems to be quicker. However, you can purchase it directly on your iPad.
You can sign up for the class on our Online Classes page! It is also only $7.99 and all the videos are ready to be watched!!
I also wanted to let you know that we have another book up in the iTunes store: Gelli Arts® Printing Plate Techniques! I will be featuring this book next week, but it is up and available to download. This will also be available as an online class! You can sign up now, but the class will be available as of Thursday, February 28th!
