Youth Visual Arts


Traci Bunkers, author of The Art Journal Workshop, Print & Stamp Lab, and Print It!, is a passionate mixed-media & fiber artist who loves rusty things, glitter glue, old books to cut up and cheap cameras. Since making her own books and art journaling have been a long time passion of hers, she always feels better after getting her art on by slapping some paint down and working in her journal. Through her one-woman business Bonkers Handmade Originals, she sells her nifty creations such as original artwork, hand-dyed spinning fibers and yarns, original rubber stamps, mixed-media supplies, handmade books, and kits. She has been teaching workshops across the US since the early 90s and has branched out into online workshops.
