Carlsbad NM Workshop

This past week I was in Carlsbad NM for a 3 day collage workshop.  It was a great class. We had lots of fun and laughs.  Carlsbad is a fun place to visit.  I did drive around and get a few photos!

This is a commission I did for someone to give to their hair dresser! I hope he enjoys it as much as I enjoyed creating it!

It is 10x10 on stretched canvas and will hanging diagonally. 

I am teaching a collage workshop Oct.7-8. If interested contact me.

Summer Fun

I have been invited to do a workshop with the group 'Sisters on the Fly' in October.
I am so excited to get to meet them and see their cute campers.  This is 'practice' to get ready.
It was fun but a little tedious since it is only 8x10.  The Silver didn't want to stick, so I had some issues with it, but was a fun piece to do!

Lubbock Collage Class

Thanks to Kim Thompson, we got to meet on Friday and Saturday and have a collage class in her studio in Lubbock, TX. We had so much fun. We laughed and ripped  paper for two days! Creating and enjoying each other's creation's and company. I feel so blessed to get to share what I have learned about art. Thank you Carol Layton, Margie Shawn,

Collage Workshop in Plains, TX

Sandy, Nancy, Bob, Olene, Alice, Reta and Jane

 

 

 

I had a great class this past week end.  They all jumped in and tore up lots of magazine pages!

When it got quite, that is all you could hear, was paper ripping. Was such fun!

They all had a great portrait when they finished.  There were 7. Sandy Oveson came all the way from DeKalb TX, Bob and Nancy Phillips from Roswell, NM, Alice Hahn from Eunice, NM, Olene Harris from Tatum, NM, and Jane Phillips and Reta Nail from Lubbock,TX.Alice chose her husband Troy to collage. Bob did a self portrait, and Nancy collaged a cute picture of her Mother.  Olene collaged her Grandson, Jane a basketball player and Reta a family member.  Sandy did a cupcake, then started on some tuba players from a parade. I was proud of all their hard work!
