There are those among us that travel this life with an open heart and eyes to see the beauty around them. In every way, this is my friend Aimee Irel Bishop. She has an appreciation and knowledge of the land she lives on, a confidence in her own creative process, an encouraging spirit, and the heart to give it all away. She knows that her process comes from an unending well of creativity and she shares her knowledge and process generously.
I have held the books she made for this course in my hands and they are treasures! Everything about these books felt so intentional…the size, the fabrics, the papers, the mark, the heart behind each element. I can’t wait to see what you create!

Are you a collector of the weird and wonderful? Do you long to find your truest artistic expression?
Do you find yourself picking up little things that catch your eye when you are on walks? Do you save little pieces or special paper and fabric? Let’s explore the spirit of the magpie, a bird with much connected mystique and symbolism!
In this workshop Aimee will be approaching the creative process with curiosity and a playful spirit. Using the Magpie as your muse you’ll be experimenting with different ways to tap into your creative instinct and fearlessness. Aimee will guide you in finding your very own visual language using brushes and mark making tools made with simple accessible materials. While exploring your truest creative expression you will build an artist book full of layers and stories from deep within your soul.
Aimee hopes to share with you how she delves into self discovery by letting go and going deep into herself. Being an observer of the process and being open to any outcome will lead you to making true and personal art that speaks from your soul.

Thoroughly enjoyed this course, made me feel like a kid just messing about with all my art materials and turning them into a magpie’s nest. Or maybe a crow’s!
