Found Objects: An Art Journal Workshop for Collectors


My intention is to inspire creativity, nurture connection, and empower transformation through mindful workshops that honor wisdom, spark joy, and celebrate the art of renewal.

Take your vintage art journaling to the next level in the Found Objects Workshop. This step-by-step online experience guides you through the process of creating richly textured, meaningful pages using found papers, ephemera, and layered techniques. With hands-on demonstrations and creative exercises, you’ll gain the confidence to craft pages that tell your story with depth and soul.

Unlock the art of layering and collage in the Found Objects Workshop. In this step-by-step online experience, you’ll transform vintage papers, ephemera, and mixed-media techniques into a one-of-a-kind art journal. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned artist, this workshop will inspire you to experiment, play, and create pages that tell your unique story.

In this workshop you will learn: 

  • Foundations & Gathering – Finding and preparing vintage materials

  • Marks & Meaning – Creating unique marks with found object

  • The Poetry of Layers – Building depth using ephemera, gesso, and fabrics, experimenting with textures

  • Storytelling & Composition – Arranging elements to tell a story on the page

  • Trusting Your Intuition – Making bold choices

  • Creative Play & Serendipity – Letting go of control

  • And so much more…

By the end of this workshop, you’ll have a beautifully layered art journal filled with rich textures, meaningful ephemera, and your unique creative voice. More than just techniques, you’ll gain the freedom to trust your intuition, embrace imperfections, and develop an art journaling practice that feels soulful and effortless. You’ll leave with a finished journal and the skills to keep creating beyond the workshop.

“Tammy is so generous with her knowledge, her resources and her contagious laugh. She’ll tell you where she got that one supply you can’t live without, or how she made those particular marks in her journal, or what’s inspiring her right now; and she does it all with such a light spirit that you can’t help but to enjoy yourself. I can’t wait for the next retreat!”
