Loading... Please wait...If I only had time for that part of yourself, you think.
Time to doodle, draw, paint or journal.
To just play. You do have time:
Creativity isn't far away, or outside of you, or laying somewhere forgotten.
It's only a small inner click away, a heart-shift from now, a joy that wants to make its way from the core of you, down through your hands and into the world.
All I ask is that you to TRUST the mess, to fold yourself into the PROCESS and forget trying to be PERFECT for once.
Nourishing your creativity doesn't need to take gallons of your time, you may be surprised at just how easily it fits into your life. Because it is meant to be there.
Beautiful, Creative You. She's important.
As a creativity expert who has guided hundreds of people back to their art, I say, start with Drawing.
It's one of our first childhood joys. It's a fundamental human endeavour and lights up all of your brain!
You are engaging your imagination, coordination, problem solving and memory.
You may start of a bit sketchy at first, but with some practice, that happiness you had
as a child with a crayon in your hand will come flooding back.
Art doesn't have to be serious to be meaningful.
In return you will get an incomparable freedom.
No ones judging or comparing. But I would like to be there, cheering you on.

Thankyou to Wendy Walsh, Yolanda, Catherine Constance, Kelly K!
"I have been doing all your online classes and really felt it was time I thanked you personally for sharing your light and I would like you to know how that light you shine has impacted on the life a total stranger. When I first met you in 21 Secretes I was flabbergasted... Draw happy opened me up in the most wonderful way... you see I have been drawing and doing art all my life but always I have been very nasty to myself, very unforgiving and full of fear. Since I've been exposed to the "Danger" factor I have drawn and painted more in the last few months than any other time in my life. Finally I feel that I am beginning to get what's in my head and imagination out into the world in the way I need to with out fear or self-loathing. You have freed me Miss Jane and I want to jump for joy... If you were here I would hug you... so, big e-hug and thank you for shining your light my way."

“I’m not an artist, nor do I have an Art Journal, I’m not even sure I am ‘creative’, but I do love collecting art supplies… Can I join in?” Of course! You don’t have to be an artist or even have to know what an ‘Art Journal’ is to get involved. Supplies Me has enough juice for all levels of arty experience. I will be there to hold your hand and give feedback on your work. Yes, there will be some fantastic, creative drawings posted, but with practice you will feel your work is just as wonderful. you have to start somewhere, right? it may as well be now! All you need is an internet connection, the creative itch, a journal and a pencil! You may WANT to get more supplies, but it will be an informed decision and no more expensive trial and error. I don't have enough time!!
What is an ‘Art Journal’ or ‘Visual Journal’?
It’s a mix of diary, travel memoir, autobiography, art therapist, visual diary, notebook, scrapbook and sketchbook….plus more… It’s a place, YOUR space, to record and work through your life experience in images, words, colours and collage. There are NO RULES, but there is a wonderful and growing community of people around the world who keep an ‘Art Journal‘. I am an avid Art Journal keeper. I find it meditative and nourishing. If I have a crappy day, or someone has ‘done me wrong’, I blurt it all out in my journal, turn the page and let it sit there for a bit. And a few days or a weeks later, I then paint over it and create something lovely on top. It cathartic, truly. So many of my ideas and inspiration come to me while I am with my Journal. I journal everyday…sometimes a little, sometimes alot. I love making lists of ‘to-do’s’ in my journal, and when I’ve ticked everything off, I turn it in to a ‘Ta-DAH!’ list by painting and drawing all over it….can you tell I LOVE it?!
“I’ve never done an Online course – what’s involved?
Once you register, you will be sent an invite to Join my Schools. I will include the password you need and all instructions. Once you are ‘inside’ the School, you will join the Classes. And then you can start the arty adventure. It’s fun!
“Do i HAVE to show my drawings and artwork?” No, but your creativity, artistic ability and drawing confidence will improve exponentially if you do…I will be encouraging you to share your work with our group. There is no judgement, just support, helpful feedback and encouragement.
“I’m an avid journaler, will there be new things for me to learn?” Of course! Run your hungry mind over the class description to see all the creative snacks, main courses and desserts on the table! Beginners and experienced creatives alike will find a plethora (love that word) of techniques and inspirations to create meaningful, heart-felt pages that will record your joys, gratitude, doubts, fears, wishes, dreams, ideas…whatever you like.
“What Supplies will I need?” Very Little – a journal and pencil is enough to get you started…but, of course you can add some fantastic art materials to your stash. If you are in Australia or New Zealand: check out whats in this store!
“Can I download the Videos?” I am a veteran of many, many online classes myself, and I can’t tell you the stress and heartache downloading videos seems to cause! Let alone the room they take up on our computers. So I have decided to host my videos on a robust, professional, paid service from Vimeo. An added advantage is I can update them if information changes. They will be compatible with all existing technology including ipads and iphones. DVD's of the class may be offered in the future.
