The Diary of The Travelling Bookbinder by Hazell Designs Books
A book of a year… The twelve months of this year each have a workshop in a different place, on a particular theme. A diary of these workshops is going to turn into a book. Please help this to happen, by coming on the journey with me - Sign up for a course http://www.hazelldesignsbooks.co.uk
The FIND YOUR EYE e-course series is designed to help you explore, recognize, and become confident in your unique style.
Instead of teaching you the technical basics of your camera or photo post-processing, this course series enhances the personal expression and creative connection to your art. Each course is full of photo examples and exercises to help you learn the material. The courses also include examples from Kat’s (Kat Eye Studio) personal journey as “lessons learned.” Along your journey, you’ll have a nurturing environment and a community of classmates from all over the world to help you learn, share and grow your creative expression.
Juliette Crane is also running How To Paint An Owl courses in person at Artfest 2012.
“A lot of people seem to come up to a blank canvas and not know what to paint. They get stuck. It happened to me all of the time. And then I realized the characters I paint and the layers I create follow a pattern. I’ll share this pattern with you step by step, starting with the drawing template I use to create my own owl characters, breaking them down into simple lines and shapes, so you can easily create your own!
We’ll go through my painting process layer by layer-beginning with backgrounds, painting our owls, adding embellishments, and creating scene. And I’ll share with you all of the tricks I’ve learned along the way too-what supplies work best, how to make everything fit together, and ways to really make your character and background pop!
We’ll play with all sorts of art supplies (acrylics, pastels, ink and GLITTER!) along with vintage wallpaper, origami paper, sheet music, and journal pages. Feel free to add anything that’s meaningful to you too! I’ve used a copy of the lease to my first apartment, old photos, and pages from my favorite books!
By the time you’re finished you’ll have a gorgeous owl to take home with you and the painting template to get you started again and again! This workshop is intended for anyone and everyone! My intention is to give you a place to begin so that your imagination can wander! Come spend the day at play! I can’t wait to see the amazing owls you create!”
How To Paint A Girl e-course: January 2012
If you love Juliette Crane’s paintings, she’d love to share with you some of her expertise! “Whenever I create things it makes me happy and my hope is that when you see the things I create, you feel that happiness too. And maybe even uncover your own inspiration and passion. And share it with the world.”
Following her success and enjoyment teaching an online painting workshop called How To Paint An Owl, she’s busy putting together a new e-course called How To Paint A Girl for 2012.
Juliette Crane is a full-time artist and adventurer. She loves nature, handmade thingsand finding beauty everywhere in the world. Whenever possible, she paints outside, mostly in the grass surrounded by flower gardens and the tallest trees.
Each of her designs has a story behind it: they captivate me.
Here are examples of the many products with her designs on. Her 2012 calendar is the perfect christmas gift, especially if you can’t decide which design is your favourite…they’re all so beautiful.

The wonderful Rachel Hazell is doing a festive bookbinding workshop from 11am - 1pm at the Selvedge Christmas Fair on the 10th of December 2011!
