Mixed Media Artist and Educator
As artists if we don’t gently push ourselves outside our comfort zone we won’t grow as artists. I believe this is true in life as well. The key is doing it gently

Former Classes

Master Board Make n’ Take

Learn to make a Master Board, which is a single large collage made to be subsequently cut or torn into pieces for a specific purpose or project.  In this class, you will make a master board and from that master board, the student can create other works of art such as greeting cards, tags, bookmarks and or magnets.  Let your creativity reign after you have made the master board!
