Welcome to the wonky, whimsical and wonderful, using sketch, paint, and collage.
In this project-based workshop, affectionately known as playtime:
- explore my sketchbook; be encouraged to spend a bit more time sketching each day.
- create your own collage snippets including marks, shapes and lines, a splash of contrast, and blocks of color — using a gel plate or not.
- paint, collage, have fun.
- finally, we combine all of this into five projects that use nature as inspiration, some paint, glue and your very own collage snippets.
The snippets are shorter lessons. The projects, as you can imagine, are a bit longer. All professionally edited so you are not spending bunches of time watching me cut or glue. You'd rather be creating!
A supply list will be available upon the registration, however, I encourage you to use what you have already.
One final mention. All the snippets are available as well as projects one and two. The other three projects will be released, one a week, for four weeks. There may be a couple extra bonuses thrown in.
I'd love for you to join us!!
Your Instructor
When my son was born over 30 years ago, I turned my brief free moments toward art. Now, as a full-time artist, I create to inspire and encourage not only myself, but you, too!
Second only to my passion for Jesus and creating, I find I have a passion for teaching others. My mom always wanted me to be a teacher—she was one pretty smart lady. Whether you are a beginner or have been doing art for years, you will enjoy my “hey – we can do this!” attitude. Because that’s what I say to myself every day!
I seem to grow more and more curious all the time. So I am constantly learning and often share this with you too. Letting you know what works and what maybe doesn’t.
Join me at my blog, on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube. Some of my abstracts are for sale on my website, as well as my new line of Athleisure - dynamically designed active wear for on the court and off. Some digital downloads are available and Etsy. You might enjoy my book(let): Bible Journaling: Honoring the Spirit. More on my book page.
Let me know how I can help you!
Jesus and art are my passions. “As for me, I will praise the Lord.” (Psalm 104:35)
