Not your traditional watercolor class, this one focuses a bit more on how the medium interacts with other agents to create textures, patterns, and color fields. We will approach watercolor painting from an exploration angle, a low-key fun way to introduce a new art without the weight of technique. Build  happy little color moments on paper and share in the awe of it with others. This class is perfect for anyone who wants to try out watercolors for the first time or add some new tricks to their repertoire. Feel free to bring personal refreshments!

Using wool felt and needlework construction basics we will explore a few different techniques to create the best "no-kill" plants. The perfect little something to adorn the low-light corners of your desk. Makers will receive pre-cut felt parts, a teacup/mug, needle, threads and notions.  Enjoy the meditative process of slow stitching. We will make sure you leave with the tools and skills to finish. No experience necessary & feel free to bring personal refreshments.

Gel printing is a fun monoprinting activity with infinite possibilities. If you want to explore a new medium, this is a great one to let your right brain loose! No special skills needed. Great for beginners, or those who want to reconnect with art. Feel free to bring personal refreshments. 

Slow down into the art of mark making with needle and thread. Explore the basics of visible mending or go rouge stitching outside of the lines by layering colors and textures in stitch patterns and embellishments to create stunning compositions. Learn needlework stitches and assemblage possibilities from the ordinary to the imagined. Let the meditative practice of slow stitching become your new practice. Feel free to bring personal refreshments. 

Enjoy the mesmerizing and meditative art of mixed media collage. Learn how to turn a beautiful mess of paper scraps into a surreal landscape or just a color blocked beauty.  We will demonstrate our favorite "process paper" techniques of pushing and pulling paint, making watercolor blooms and mark making. Explore paper cutting techniques and layering. There will be a plethora of materials to scavenge and tools to use in creating your one of a kind masterpiece. Best experienced with a few friends as a fun way to shake out the week. BYOB.
