Vintage Canvas
Collage Workshop
Join me as we create this fabulous mixed media art piece to celebrate the most frequently spoken sentence of every creative person…”I have an idea!”
Learn innovative and funky texture, background and collage techniques along with fabulous and fun techniques to make the collage your own by personalizing the edges of your deep edged canvas.
This is a class that you will love and an art piece you will embrace as a creative muse to take home and hang in your creative space or studio!

I can’t seem to get any responses. I’m signing up for all three of the… Life Art A La Carte…meaningful online workshops. My question is…I’m a painter and I would REALLY like to learn how to draw the PEOPLE, as I know this is done with some sort of pencil and not paint. Can you offer more art classes???
