~~~ Workshops ~~~
In response to popular demand, I will be hosting a variety workshops at new studio space at RedLine - hooray! Recycled books, monoprint, screenprint, woodcuts, come and learn it all!
Release your inner creativity, as I guide you through the printmaking process. Taught in simple, easy to understand terminology, you'll learn all my tips and tricks to make successful prints. My approach is a non-toxic, environmentally-friendly process geared toward the home studio environment. Whether you've taken a workshop with me before, or you're a first-timer, there's always something fun and new to learn and do.
Check back soon to see the schedule, times, dates, etc. Space for each workshop is extremely limited, so grab a friend and register today to secure your spot.

Learn a variety of techniques to print your own designs onto fabric. Each week will cover a different printing technique including stencils, relief printing and silkscreen. Gain a sampling of different experiences to figure out what works best for your ideas, images, and designs. Students will be working in small scale to master each technique quickly. Finished pieces could ultimately become artwork, mixed media collage, articles of clothing, accessories such as scarves, personalized pillowcases, kitchen towels, tote bags and curtains just to name a few.
Fridays in October 6, 13, 20, 27, from 1-4 pm
