The Artistic Voice 5 session weekly online workshop will give you the tools to develop your personal artistic voice; to discover your own personal visual language. Artistic voice is that unique and recognizable artistic style each artist has. It is your personal visual language where your beliefs, your life philosophy, and your self-identity are interwoven with the art you make.

You will learn where to find those ideas, images, and feelings that are most meaningful to you and that will be pivotal in developing your personal artistic voice. It is great to learn a new art form, new artistic ways to express yourself, but how can you get started, where can you find inspiration, and what kind of art do you want to make with your newly learned ideas and techniques? This workshop will answer those questions!
