The new Schack Art Center is *gorgeous*, spacious, and *chock*full* of amazing art classes. I was there today for a couple of hours demo'ing several of my paper based classes....collage, journaling, zine making and more. It was a ball!
(Except for the part when I first arrived and was surprised by a leather clad motorcycle dude who I didn't see til he was *right*there*, shouting at me about ticketing and needing to move my car. I got so discombobulated that I accidentally shut the car door. whoop, whoop. and it locked with everything inside -- keys, phone, etc. 20 minutes before I was to haul all my stuff in and demo. Fortunately, I was able to use the internets to find our insurance folks and have a Pop-a-Lock guy show up in time for me to get to my space. On. Time.)
Beautiful weather today.
I love this painting, working on a couple more blooming flowers soon.
I received a "photo studio in a box" for Christmas. So my excuses about poor lighting are over. I'm playing with backgrounds and taking better photographs. I'm working on doing a deep cleaning of the studio, so that there will be plenty of room for taking photographs...and making art in the evenings and other stolen moments throughout the week.
These earrings are currently up for sale in my etsy store...See the link to the right.
I really, really enjoy making and filling art journals lately. These are a couple that I will have for sale in the etsy shop eventually. I also teach classes locally on how to make these lovelies.
