Project Day...paper mache

Berta brought her piece by Julie Arkel.....so exciting to see!!

We had a great time. Sukey Buchanan, Cindy Knight, Jill McCutcheon and I all shared our style of paper mache. But everyone took it too new places....very fun day.

Journaling Bonanza

In this fast paced workshop, we will hand bind funky journals with pages made out of various papers and sizes. Then we will explore collage & drawing with a slew of products including prismacolor colored pencils (my newest passion!), gel pens, paint pens, paint dabbers, distress stains, crayons, pan pastels, stencils and japanese tape. It's going to be a blast as we fill our journals with color, imagery and lettering.

materials list:

a variety of papers to use as pages (can be scrapbooking papers, random pieces of paper from other projects, wrapping papers, cardboard ads, pages from on old children's book or other book...anything that seems sturdy enough for a page). bring all sizes.

scissors
prismacolor pencils (whatever you have)
whatever gel pens, sharpie poster paint pens, copic markers, tombow markers you have.
paint dabbers and distress stains by Ranger (whatever you have)
stencils, stamp pads, stipple brushes for stamp pads (whatever you have)
tape (paper tape, scotch tape, masking tape) -whatever you have.

1 magazine, 1 thrift store book to cut up (something with cool images in it)


OK and now the other news. I am joining 15 local artists and opening a store in Solvang!!! It is called Art Hus and is at 475 First St #2. We are all super excited and plan to be up and running by March 10th. We have a blog but not much to report yet: http://www.arthusshop.blogspot.com
