Mixed Media Assemblage Junk Bird Class
Had a great group of people out to the studio to build bird out of junk. I love to see the great diversity of creations that happen. Same instructions and same basic materials and such a creative variety of art.

Art and Soul Blogroll!
So this is my first blogroll. Hope I do it “right”. We are all teachers teaching at this falls Art and Soul in Portland, OR Sept 30th- Oct 6th. Visit each persons blog for more info, fun inspiration, and chances to win prizes.
One of my most popular classes at Art and Soul in Virginia Beach was DELIGHTFUL DISTRESSING. Many of the techniques in this class came from accidents and whimsical explorations. I provide all the materials to learn how to change new and shiny boring objects into old and cool vintage looking treasure. This is a fast paced class that you will leave with a ton of techniques from.
Students working hard distressing everything from cloth and paper to plastic and wood.
I am also teaching a very different class called Gut Instincts. This is a perfect class for the student that feels like they have seen and done it all. I will be teaching you how to make strong translucent panels out of sausage casings, that can be sewn, painted, and stamped. We also will be working with the translucent nature of the material by embedding found objects, transparencies, string, wire, and fabric. I created mine as a hanging but the panels could just as easily become a book.
Altered Art Dolls are one of my biggest passions and a retreat would not be complete without teaching “a crazy doll class”. We are going to be exploring our bohemian nature in creating this lovely bohemian Gypsy Doll. A ton of fun and a ton of techniques…
Hope to see you in October at Art and Soul Portland!!!

Speaking of RIGHT, one of my philosophy in making and teaching art is that there is NO ONE RIGHT WAY. There are an infinite number of paths to creating. Sometimes the path that seems like a train wreck is the path that creates a new amazing technique. My class motto is cherish the mistakes and embrace the grunge!August 23 Jill Berry Blog: http://jillberrydesign.com/blog/Make sure to visit Jill’s blog and signup for her giveaway!

The heart is such a universal and significant symbol in our lives. I have been draw to the image of the sacred heart in all its forms and incarnations for years. I invite you to come and explore what your Sacred Heart might look like? This is an assemblage class where we explore different ways to alter and attach objects together to make a unified piece of art.
