A Piece of Sky

I love paint ....

It's true.  I love paint, and I love canvas. 

So tonight I combined both and did some creating.  I made the above card using sticky back canvas and the Lumiere paints pictured.  This card will be taught in an upcoming class - Cardmaking using Fabric.

Here's the other one:

Both cards will be taught in the class .... this is one I am REALLY looking forward to teaching!  Lets get messy! 

I am teaching my Tile Class this Saturday.  The technique is Shrink Plastic - next fortnight's technique is Working with Beeswax.  If you haven't used Beeswax before, consider this class ... it is a wonderful medium to work with, and beautifully aromatic too.

11.53pm, 7 minutes to bedtime.  So I shall sign off here ... but can I ask a BIG favour?  If you stopped by, leave a comment - I would love to hear from you!

Goodnight all,

A Little More Art

I managed to find a little time over the last couple of weeks to do some more of my art - I can't imagine a life without it to be honest and I love those artful moments when it's me, some paint, tools and "bits" ...

The next tile class at Scraptivate is working with Shrinky Dink - I remember shrinking plastic in the oven when I was a kid!  Anyway, these Shrinky Dink tiles have a vintage twist - so in this class along with learning all about Shrinky Dink I'll also teach ageing and distressing techniques too.

The following fortnight the class is on Beeswax.  I love working with the Beeswax, using the Hot Wax Art Stylus.  It is a fantastic medium to use in collage as it gives so much depth and texture to the work.  This class is a little more involved and so will be 3.5 hours (instead of the usual 2.5 hrs).  It's a class I am really looking forward to teaching ... here's a look at what we will create:

And have a great week!
