Another Great Jewelry Class

We had another great group at the Creative Element for a Resin ( found object ) Jewelry Class, I will post the pic's tonight. I love getting together with like minded people to share and laugh. We ended the day with a snow storm, uck.

I'm learning something new

I'm taking a painting class from Kay O'Rourke, in Spokane. We are working on using a story, poem etc to develop a painting. The P stands for power. The other words I was trying to use were Big Bird, Chunky, Blooming Black Beak, unquenchable Eyes, etc. I'm using materials that are new to me, so this is a challenge. Every time you learn something new it should be a challenge. I think I want to tear this up into different parts and put it back together again, we will see??????

1/12/08 Resin Jewelry Class

WOW we had a great class with wonderful talented ladies. There was a Grandma with her Grand Daughter sharing the day. I thought that was fantastic, I love my Grand Children and to share art with them is the best.I love teaching and sharing. Every one did the best work. We will do it again next week-end with different ladies.

Getting samples and all my stuff ready to go to the class, at the Creative Element in Coeur d'Alene Id.

The Class was full, so we had lots to visit about and share.

Lay out is very important, Some ladies brought some of the coolest treasures

We had to work on plastic just in case we got messy, can you believe that, HA HA

Some pieces became more of a wall hanging, very nice.

More cool stuff

The Back Yard in Idaho

Where did my Beautiful Green Backyard go? I'm not much for the winter, but it is a good break from being so busy. This is a great time to get little things done.
