Virtual Vacation
Join me for a fun and freeing painting adventure, coaxing a vacation destination from your imagination or using your own travels as a springboard for what comes next in your studio.
I’ll share how I gather materials to use as inspiration and how I distill the most interesting bits to present visual stories of places to remember. Then it’s your turn! I challenge you to release yourself from the limitations of a literal interpretation of these places.
“Artistic license” will be our guide, combining separate moments into one creation that helps our experiences shine for all to enjoy. It’s a fun and easy way to highlight some of your favorite memories and take yourself on a virtual vacation whenever the road calls to you.
Get it Together: Art Studio Organization
Why do you organize your studio the way you do? We all have different ways that work for us, if we even have a plan at all. This class is about way more than cute containers, though you know I love them too!
I’ll discuss some of the reasons you might want to organize your paints, tools, and other materials in different ways. This will not only get you organized, but it will help you consider how these groupings might enhance your knowledge of your materials and give you inspiration for how to use them together in your art.
I approached organization much differently when I was painting at my kitchen table, again when I had a dedicated art room and painted only for myself, and once again now that I am a professional artist who also teaches and travels. Join me for some interesting examples so we can all get it together!
