Hi everyone 💛 I’m thinking of hosting a live mixed media journaling session with an Ocean Theme 🌊 It will be a soft, creative session where we explore water, emotions, flow, and gentle self-expression through layers, collage, color, and intuitive mark-making. Before I plan the date and time, I wanted to ask: Would anyone here be interested in joining a live session? You don’t need to be “good at art.” Just bring your journal or paper, basic paints, collage scraps, and an open heart. Comment below if you’d love to join, and also let me know what day and timing works better for you. 💛

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing where you are in the world, a photo of your workspace, and something you like to do for fun. 😊 I am Sana — a professional artist, HICAT-certified art therapist, and the founder of Wild About Art Studio in Bahrain. I have been teaching art for over 15 years and I created this community because I wanted one beautiful, simple space where you have everything you need to create, reflect, and grow. I am so glad you are here.

It’s raining, I’m bored, and I’m tired of doing the same creative thing every day. I’ve decided to sand down a cheap clearance painting I’ve had sitting around and paint something new over it. I covered the board with gesso then roughed in a landscape scene. I’ll start phase 2 tomorrow. In the meantime I’ll do one of Sana’s prompts. 💕 Sometimes you just don’t want to do anything, but you have to push through it. Right?

At these some of my first exercises I did with circles.
