Watercolor Journaling: A Gentle, Guided Practice
3-hour workshop · No experience needed

📍 Scrap & Sip, San Francisco
🗓 Saturday, July 5 · 12:00–3:00 PM
🎨 All materials included: Menmin Made watercolor journal, travel watercolor set, and water brush pens
👥 Limited to 10 spots


This workshop is a slow, low-pressure introduction to watercolor journaling using simple shapes, color, and light reflection. Rather than focusing on drawing skill or finished paintings, we'll use watercolor as a way to notice what's present — visually, quietly, and without overthinking.

We'll work through a small number of guided exercises that build naturally on one another, moving from loose color exploration to subtle layering and closure. Writing is optional throughout; a single word, phrase, or no words at all is always welcome.

The emphasis is on process over product, and on creating pages that feel honest rather than polished.

What We'll Do

We'll begin with Mood Blobs — choosing a few colors and letting them move freely on the page. This is a way to arrive, loosen up, and start without needing a plan.

From there, we'll explore Layered Shapes and Transparency, allowing color to build slowly. Some layers may overlap, some may fade, some may remain visible underneath. This part of the workshop focuses on noticing what's accumulating or sitting with us, without needing to explain it.

Next, we'll work with Heavy vs. Light, using contrast — darker, denser marks alongside softer washes — to visually sort what feels weighty and what feels easier or more spacious. This often brings a sense of quiet clarity without requiring emotional analysis.

We'll then experiment with Clusters, grouping small shapes together and noticing patterns. This exercise helps participants see how thoughts, moments, or impressions naturally organize themselves on the page.

Toward the end, we'll use Paint Over It as a gentle softening practice — partially obscuring a word, shape, or area — followed by One Small Addition, where each person adds a single final mark and asks, "What's enough?"

We'll close by noticing what's small but present — tiny marks, subtle colors, or quiet areas of the page — as a way of ending with attention rather than evaluation.

What This Workshop Is (and Isn't)

This is:

  • Guided, but not instructional-heavy
  • Reflective, but not therapy
  • Creative, but not about making "good art"

You don't need prior experience with watercolor or journaling. Everything is optional, and there's no pressure to share unless you want to.

Participants leave with:

  • Several completed journal pages
  • A simple, repeatable watercolor journaling process
  • A felt sense of completion and ease

This computer is great, it's fast, reliable, and it has a great amount of screen real estate. It's great for people who have trouble reading or people who have to multitask.

Love it.
Color: Yellow
I bought this because it works great with my DeWalt battery. My driveway was overgrown and it locked up a couple of times which I'm assuming is a safety feature. Once I got the driveway cleaned up it works just fine.

My favorite E edger so far.
Color: Yellow
For a battery powered unit, it was much better than I expected. Powerful enough to do everything in my yard. It beats even some of my previous good gas ones. I did my whole large front yard with a little more than one battery. Pretty good, actually.

Does a good job, and works pretty well. Took weeks to have it delivered.
Works pretty well, seems to be slightly underpowered. I think it would work better if the soil here were drier. The shroud around the blade would probably not jam up with dirt if the soil here is drier. I was constantly having to remove the battery and using a screwdriver to remove the dirt from the shroud. The shroud would work better if it was larger. There is an adjuster that lowers a metal guide that fits up against the concrete that helps you to keep the blade right up to the edge, make sure to lower that guide into place. The 20 Volt Max batteries I used are hard to insert and remove, but mine are aftermarket batteries, and another tool I own is also hard to insert and remove the same batteries.

Good luck with trying to find blades. To work properly one has to find a blade with a center hole of 7/16” diameter OBLONG so it can engage the motor shaft and not spin freely DO NOT BUY THIS REPEAT DO NOT BUY THIS
