Wanderlust: Foundations Edition

Is Foundations Edition for you?

• You have a drawer full of art supplies but aren't sure how to use them to their full potential
• You want to understand why a technique works, not just follow steps blindly
• You're curious about mixed media but feel overwhelmed by all the different materials
• You want to build real confidence with your core supplies before moving on to complex projects
• You love learning from different artists and seeing how each one approaches the same materials

If any of these feel familiar, Foundations Edition was made for you.

A taste of what you'll create

57 lessons exploring gesso, acrylics, inks, watercolours, papers, and more — each one unlocking a new way to work with your favourite supplies.

What is the Foundations Edition?

Every mixed-media artist has a set of core supplies they reach for again and again — the materials that form the backbone of their creative practice. In the Foundations Edition, we call these the Star Supplies.

This edition of Wanderlust is built entirely around understanding these essential materials at a deeper level. Instead of rushing through techniques, you'll slow down and learn what each supply can truly do — how it behaves, how it layers, how it interacts with other materials, and how to use it with intention.

Whether you've been art journaling for years or you're just getting started, there's something powerful about going back to foundations. When you truly understand your materials, everything you make gets better — more confident, more expressive, more yours.

Going back to basics

Previously released as Wanderlust 2022, this edition has been renamed to reflect its timeless focus on mastering the essential supplies of mixed media. Same incredible course, same extraordinary teachers — now available as instant access, completely self-paced.

While other editions of Wanderlust focus on themes like personal practice or storytelling, the Foundations Edition is all about your materials. It's the edition that answers the question every artist eventually asks: "What can this supply really do?"

Across 7 Star Supply groups, you'll explore gesso, gel medium, modeling paste, acrylics, watercolours, inks, papers, and more — each one taught by artists who have spent years mastering these materials and are ready to share everything they know.

7 Star Supplies, one complete foundation

Each group of lessons focuses on one essential supply category — giving you the depth to truly understand what makes each material special.

Every lesson centres on one Hero Technique

Each of the 57 lessons is built around a single Hero Technique — one core skill or approach that becomes the heart of your art journal page. This means you're never overwhelmed. You focus on one idea at a time, explore it fully, and then carry it forward into your growing practice.

From gesso texturing and acrylic glazing to ink dripping and image transfer — every Hero Technique is something you can return to again and again, long after the lesson is over.
