Was your spring weekend sun filled and glorious? We hosted a backyard party for my mother’s 65th (almost wrote 6th. Hmmm. That would have been curious) and the sun poured all over our celebration. I was bursting with gratitude all weekend long (the sunshine was just the tip of the gratitude iceberg). Oh, and look for a party decoration post later in the week.
Speaking of sun and spring celebrations, there are still a few spots left in my Springtime Beginners Hand Printing Workshop for Adults (see below)! Please send me an email if you are interested in joining. And, for those already enrolled, look for an email with details about materials & supplies soon!
I am so looking forward to making art together!

Held at my home studio
Learn to make your own relief prints! The first part of this workshop will focus on learning to see your surroundings as a means for collecting printing inspiration. We’ll collect nature, and examine found materials, thumb through vintage books, and do some quick hand sketches as part of this important gathering process. After this, I’ll teach three distinct and simple relief printing skills: craft foam blocks printing, nature printing, and found object printing. You’ll leave with your own relief blocks, hand printed muslin squares, and/or hand printed note cards. Additionally, you’re welcome to bring your own t-shirts, fabric, and stationary to class, and you’ll learn the best ways to print and apply your hand printed images. No previous printing experience needed!
