Seek JOY through art with us!
Self-expression, self-discovery & self-care, all wrapped up in one.
Joyful, zero-judgement, freeing art can be a real game changer. Join Wanderlust to fill your cup, make a best friend out of your art journal, and get busy creating art that expresses who you are, even if it's for your eyes only!
Even when (or especially when) you're experiencing a hard season of life, or a day that isn't going as planned, art journaling can be used as a cathartic and healthy escape from daily troubles. Your journal will become a mirror to help you express yourself and have a chance to listen to your inner voice.
Let go of perfectionism - with Wanderlust, there's no right or wrong
There's only exploration and learning!
Have you ever experience it - a blank sheet of paper in front of you, art supplies are ready, you've carved out some time... but you just don't know what should be the first step, or how to create that 'perfect' piece of art that you are envisioning.
Wanderlust shows you how to get started and jump over the most common obstacles. Each week, there's a different springboard of inspiration from a teacher who's genuinely invested in your art journaling experience. We're here to take you by the hand and help you on this journey of self-discovery through laid-back art.

In 2024 we'll be focusing on Star Themes and Hero Techniques throughout the year.
There will be 6 Star Themes:
Brushes & Tools
Texture
Writing
Printmaking
Drawing
Alternatives
Every class focuses on a Hero Technique!
Each lesson will be built around one Hero Technique, that each Teacher has chosen for their lesson to provide a focus and a structure to the course. This also ensures that the techniques won’t repeat and that your learning experience is balanced and each week brings something new to your repertoire!

F.A.Q.
When does this course start and finish?
The course starts on Friday 5th of January 2024, but if you sign up now there is already content available in the classroom. Simply scroll up to the Curriculum to see what's in there already.
How long do I have access to the course?
Wanderlust comes with lifetime access. After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own. You can also download all of the videos, so you can watch them even when you are offline. Forget about any pressure to 'keep up'. We encourage you to come as you are, whenever you can.
What is your refund policy?
We would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us in the first 14 days and we will give you a full refund.
What sort of art will I be learning on this course?
Wanderlust is about mixed-media art journaling. All lessons will be done in an art journal, but can be easily translated into a canvas, a paper pad or a board. There are no dimensional projects on Wanderlust, but we tackle lots of different styles, techniques and subjects.
Do I have to buy lots of supplies to do the course?
You will need to have some basics, but we encourage students to substitute supplies and use what you have to hand where possible. With each class, we ask our teachers to provide alternative suggestions for less common supplies, and students often turn to the Adventurers Circle to share alternative ideas, too.
If you're considering a buying new supply for a class, we encourage you to watch the class first and make sure you like the technique before committing to purchasing it.
You can read more about the basic supplies for Wanderlust 2024 here.
Do you offer subtitles?
Yes! The course is in English and we are excited to be able to offer French, Polish, Chinese simplified, Dutch (Nederlands) Farsi, German, Spanish, Swedish and Norwegian subtitle options for our students.
Can I find out what each lesson during the year is going to be about?
Yes! Check out our printable schedule.
Are there any extra costs during the year?
Nope! This is a one-off payment and there are no extra costs that this course requires. You pay once and you get full access to all lessons released weekly.
Do you have a payment plan, can I pay in instalments?
Yes! We offer a payment plan where you can pay for the course in 3 instalments.
Can I use my smartphone to watch the lessons?
Yes! Our website and classrooms work very well on tablets and smartphones.
Are the lessons all new content from the teachers (never been offered on any other platform)?
Yes! It’s all new and exclusive to Wanderlust. All of the lessons on Wanderlust are brand new, available only through Wanderlust and have been made for us. You won’t find them anywhere else.
I've done Wanderlust last year. Is this a repeat?
No, Wanderlust never repeats. This year we are diving deeper into Star Themes and Hero Techniques. Every year there are new teachers, new subjects, new lessons, new techniques.
Why is there tax added on top of the price?
As tax rates vary all over the world, adding tax on top of the price is the only way we can now continue to offer our classes on sale globally.
This has been further complicated by Brexit, and international clamp downs on online tax collection.
Sales tax is worked out and added to the cart if applicable on a country by country basis.
Is Wanderlust suitable for everyone? I'm struggling with mental health, will the course help me deal with those issues?
Please be aware that we'll have several lessons on Wanderlust 2024 which explore self-discovery questions. We will be working with expressing our feelings and emotions so if you're not comfortable doing it this course may not be for you. If you're struggling with mental health please seek professional help and if you decide to join the course use it as a tool for finding new passion and to support your healing process.
