Aha Moments at the First Workshop in My New Studio

The first workshop in my new studio was an amazing success!!  My goal in my mixed media classes has always been to teach new techniques and have each student leave with at least one art work that they love. But my intention is that I want to help each person SEE in a new way and that totally happened this weekend. Watching you ladies find your freedom in collage, your confidence in drawing and your independence in painting was fantastic for me. But Linda's AHA moment that our greatest obstacles are always in our minds, left me feeling thrilled and energized like I was taking the class myself! Thank you ladies!!

I've got you all on my workshop newsletter list and those of you new can sign up HERE (just scroll down a bit). I plan on adding some weekday workshops so keep checking the web site as well.

Sing like no one is listening.
Love like you’ve never been hurt.
Dance like nobody’s watching,
and collage, draw and paint like it’s heaven on earth
