Dear Marieke, thank you so much for this course. I’ve been a huge fan of your art for years; in fact, my personal art journal journey began with your workshops back in 2019/2020. I’ve learned so much from you — and not just about art. By now, I’m a fairly experienced art journal artist, yet — or perhaps precisely because of that — booking the new workshop was no question. I love your teaching style so much. Your way of creating is absolutely inspiring for me. I’ve watched every episode of “The Raw & Messy Sessions”, some of them multiple times. 🙂 Your concept just really works for me, and I’m so happy for myself (and for you) that you’re back. I look forward to more. All the best, yours Anne.

I loved this class. It was a review for me but very inspiring. I have loved your work for years and this class made me remember that I need to have with my art! Thank you Marieke!

Great class! Opened me up to being more free, creative and introspective with my journals. Being open to being MESSY, and letting go of perfectionism is a game changer. Thanks so much!

A great class in bite sized bits, just as I like it for my unfocused brain. I have been doing mixed media and art journaling since a very long time and recognize a lot of the steps that got you here Marieke! I am inspired to art journaling again after a long pause and was actually working on my own art during the entire course. I am looking forward to the next installment of your new series of courses!

I enrolled in this course mainly to get back into the studio. Marieke’s non-linear and layered approach fits my “too many ideas to start” issue. I love the Raw & Messy sessions as it feels like I’m creating with a friend.

I found Marieke through another course and fell in love with her style and approach. This course was amazing. If I were to start right now, this course would be the first one for me to begin my journey. And even as an art journaler myself, I learned a lot, and most importantly, this course left me with a huge amount of inspiration. Thank you, Marieke 🙂
