Hannah is an art journaler, artist, and blogger and here she talks about her experience taking the Summer of Love Class.
What you have gotten out of Summer of Love?
Way too much fun. And two books full of summer memories.
Do you feel it's a class you can use each summer?
Absolutely! I have used Summer of Love two years in a row, and I plan on using it again!
Did it make you better at photography?
I would have to say, yes. Summer of Love got me excited about figuring out my camera - and not just excited about the manual settings, but about the types of photos to be taken: self portraits, night shots, bokeh. This class got me diving deeper into photography, and even though I still have a lot to learn, yes, Summer of Love helped better me as a photographer.
Did it make you more comfortable with art journaling? Art journaling in this medium?
In a lot of ways, yes, it did make me more comfortable with art journaling. Summer of Love was the first time I art journaled in something other than a prebound journal, so it took me a bit to get into the style the class was taught in. But, once I got into it, I loved it! The idea of making a book out of a book was somewhat magical to me. After the class (and during), I started to try different mediums of art journaling, and became more comfortable with experimenting. Somewhere during Summer of Love I had realized that the possibilities of art journaling are endless! And I haven't stopped exploring the endless since.
Any other words?
Summer of Love is a great class. Kara is a wonderful teacher and a huge inspiration. No matter where you are in your art journaling adventures, this class is well worth taking.
