New Classes and New Fee Structure

New Classes
If you have wanted to take art lessons but felt that you are just not artistic, my classes are for you. I work with each student on an individual basis.

All my classes are now only $10 for a Regular Drop In fee and only $5 for Seniors and Students! There are discounts for multiple sessions: a 5 Class Pass is only $30 Regular $20 for Seniors/Students. So, very affordable! AND the Pass makes a great gift! They are attractively packaged in a handmade (by me) card and can be used whenever the recipient wants for any of my classes. There is no expiration date. I will be adding lots more fun classes in 2012 which will be available for this Class Pass. You can give the gift of discovery and creativity to everyone on your list!

FREE Playday!

I am starting a new FUN event! My studio partner Nancy Saahira Tedder (marketing whiz) suggested this great idea and I had to run with it...a FREE open studio art day! I will put out all kinds of paint, markers, crayons, pastels. papers, collage stuff. Drop in for a few minutes or stay for the day. Bring a friend. You will find a welcoming sanctuary to experiment with art and unleash your creativity.
What a fun way to give a little back to my patrons, students, and friends! Thanks Nancy!

Open to All! No Experience Needed! All Materials Provided!
You are encouraged to bring snacks...I am partial to cookies with nuts in them myself!
