Facing the blank page or canvas does not have to paralyze you! Working with my mixed media prompt deck is my favorite way to get started and find my way. Once I’ve pulled a card or two my intuition takes over and I’m whisked away to working in the flow.
We will make a magical deck together. Each card will depict some examples of the prompt on them. You will leave with your very own deck in a tidy handmade box to store them. Better yet, you will leave with an improved working knowledge of some mixed media layering techniques.
