Simple Sketch© classes are returning!
Join me from 1-3:30pm on select Fridays to play with this unique approach to sketching. Each class will focus on different themes and explore a simple approach to capturing a moment. We will emphasize loose work, unique voices and "lowering the bar" while learning ways to find satisfaction in the short cuts. Register for one or all classes, using the buttons provided. Class sizes are limited to only 10 students, so I suggest registering early; your fee is non-refundable but may be transferred. Students will be asked to bring their own art supplies (but the list is short; and I will have materials to loan so you don't have to purchase much for the class). We will be meeting in central Denver, near the Denver Botanic Gardens. The specific address will be sent to registered students

Feb. 21-22, 2020 OR March 6-7 Mixed Media Adventures workshop
Exploring Mixed Media Pages:
Adding layers of texture, inks, images, words, stitch & more to create innovative accordion, meander and triangle art books
If you love mixing media and you get twitchy in front of a mountain of materials, you will have a blast in this workshop!
Each book will utilize a variety of techniques in new ways, and our favorite materials including, of course, some sari ribbons, embroidery floss, color and creative stitch-making by hand and machine.
Plan on working on both days from 9:00-3:00 although the schedule may be slightly adjusted before the workshop begins. If you are joining us from out of state we recommend staying at the Hilton Garden Inn nearby. The workshop will be held at the Washington Park United Methodist Church, 1955 E. Arizona Ave, in a neighborhood with easy access to I 25 (close to the University of Denver).
The total cost of the retreat will be $325 + a $35 materials fee which includes the following:
Absolutely all of your materials including access to several sewing machines. (You won't have to bring anything except your lunches and an apron)
LIght breakfast snacks (both days) with coffee/tea and water set up will be provided.
Link here to register
Each workshop is limited to 18 students.

Sketching Spain, 2020
We thrilled to offer 3 trips in 2020. Link here for details. We will release the prices and itineraries by early January, but for now we have the dates and regions of Spain. Please let us know if you would like an early bird notice for trips in 2020.
No experience in sketching or travel journaling necessary! The small group of 10 students allows for plenty of individual instruction; it is a fantastic way to see a gorgeous area. We wander & sketch as travelers, not tourists.
