Do you enjoy exploring your creativity? Maybe you’ve never done sketching or creative writing, and want to try something new? Art Journaling is a fun combination of creative writing, drawing, collage, painting and more. Join local artist Alexis LaFlamme in a relaxed and supportive setting to play with words, colors and shapes by creating your own art journal pages.
Each month will have a different theme and mediums may vary from pen/ink to watercolors to markers or collaging supplies. No art experience is necessary.
Join for a single session for $50 per person, or come for all 3 in the series for the discounted bundle rate of $125 per person.
All sessions are held on Sunday afternoons, 2pm to 4pm. Themes for the art journaling sessions are:
- April 2: Focus on Gratitude

- June 4: Zen Doodling Patterns
Current Aya members save 10%. $50 per person per session, or $125 for all 3 sessions. Subject to cancellation in the event of low enrollment (so invite a friend!).
About the instructor: Alexis LaFlamme
Alexis LaFlamme is an abstract artist based in West Seattle. She creates in many different mediums, but her favorites are acrylics and alcohol inks because of their vivid pigmentation.
Through the use of nuanced rich colors and ethereal shapes, her work speaks to the underlying flow connecting all things. She is often inspired by the patterns and forms of nature, including water, trees and plants, the sky; all the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Alexis’s artwork has been sold to private collectors and has been shown at multiple galleries and art fairs throughout the PNW.
Since 2017, Alexis has been leading groups in a wide variety of creative projects including art journaling, block printing, polymer clay, blackout poetry, ink/acrylic/watercolor projects, Zen doodling and neurographic art. She loves to share creative activities with artists and non-artists alike as a form of creative relaxation, reflection and meditation.
