Explore. Express. Create.

You have so many thoughts, emotions, and ideas—but how often do you take time to explore them through creativity?

At Squirrel Brain, Chickadee Soul, we believe that art is a powerful way to connect with yourself, process emotions, and play without pressure.

This expressive zine-making workshop is an invitation to do just that.

Through simple prompts and intuitive creativity, you’ll create a mini-zine that reflects your emotions, curiosity, and personal story—no art skills required, just a willingness to explore.

Let go of perfection. Play with ideas. Make something that’s entirely yours.

📍 Next Workshop: Marshall, NC – March 22, 2025


Imagine This…

  • You leave feeling lighter, inspired, and more connected to yourself.
  • You sit down with simple materials—paper, markers, collage bits.
  • You follow gentle creative prompts, exploring emotions visually.
  • You fold, cut, and fill pages of your own mini-zine—a personal reflection of this moment in your life.
  • It’s not about making “good” art—it’s about self-expression and play.

Why Zines?

Zines are small, handmade booklets that have been used for self-expression, storytelling, and activism for decades. In this workshop, we’ll use them as a tool for introspection, play, and creative freedom—helping you express thoughts and emotions in a visual, tangible way.

There’s no right or wrong way to make a zine—just your way.


You Deserve to Create Without Pressure.

Life is busy. Your brain is full. But taking time for creative expression isn’t a luxury—it’s a way to reconnect with yourself.

This is your chance to step away from the noise and make something that feels like you.

Meet Your Host: Amanda Jeanne
Hi! I’m Amanda Jeanne, an American artist living in Québec with ADHD and a deep love for intuitive creativity. I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and disconnected from creative expression—that’s why I created Squirrel Brain, Chickadee Soul.

Through intuitive painting, somatic practices, and creative workshops, I help people reconnect with themselves through art—no perfection, no pressure, just play.

I can’t wait to create with you!
