or click here to send payment

Come join me for a day of creative play in my new Portland, Oregon studio! You will learn to create your very own whimsical birds using mixed media techniques and collage. All supplies are included in the cost of the class, so all you have to do is come dressed to get messy and get a little paint on your hands! I will also be providing some light snacks/beverages, so all you'll need is a lunch (something that doesn't need to be refrigerated since we don't have a fridge in the studio yet). There are also many places nearby to grab some lunch if you want to get out for lunch instead.

Within 48 hours of sending your class payment, you will receive an email from me with directions to the studio. Hope you can join me! Its gonna be a blast!!!

Recent drawings + books display

20121210-124649.jpg One of the pics I took at our open house yesterday at the studio. Had this little table set up in my area to display the books I've been featured in along with the original artwork + some pieces in progress & my most recent drawings.

It was a great time and we had lots of lovely people attend! Hoping to have another one around Valentines Day, so if you missed this one you'll have another opportunity to come visit soon! xoxo

Laurelhurst Winter Bazaar! Come see me!

laurelhurst_winter_bazaar_poster_2012.jpg

Gosh where does the time go??? I've been so busy with prepping for local holiday shows (of which I've already done two in the past few weeks), that I've not posted here. I wanted to make sure though that my local patrons in the Portland/Vancouver area didn't miss out on my last holiday show of the season, the Laurelhurst Winter Bazaar, so I'm making a post. See the promo pic below for all the details, or check the December section on my events page. Come see me and get all your holiday shopping finished early! xoxo p.s. I've reopened my online shop, but now I'm on Storenvy, so be sure to check it out! I have a few prints & ceramic coaster tiles there right now, but will be adding more arty goodies in the coming days. You don't have to have an account with Storenvy to make a purchase (unlike Etsy) and you can still pay with your credit card or debit card. :)
