I am so excited to see some of my old friends and to meet their friends as we make huge messes on the floor and make finished paintings together to give to someone as a gift for Christmas.

$30 a person for a 3 hour workshop:

We will learn collage, painting, and color techniques, play with materials

and layering, laugh with old and new friends, challenge ourselves
creatively, have yummy snacks and good music as we finish a MIXED MEDIA
MASTERPIECE to give to someone for Christmas!

...if you are interested in attending any of these ART PARTY nights, they
are open and we would LOVE to have you!!

a few ideas of what we could make together:


make a vibrant painting with a quote
or lyrics from one of your favorites songs...

a baby gift for someone's new nursery...

an anniversary painting for your grandparents

or a gift to your mom of pictures from her parents wedding!

an abstract painting full of colors and shapes

a gift to someone who recently got married!
something very unique to do with their wedding photos!

a gift to a sweet friend or sister with fun pictures of you when you were little...

one of the photos from my Memphis Mixed Media Painting Workshop this past August,
the workshops this fall will be much like that workshop- making a finished painting in 3 hours for $30 a person (plus bringing a canvas to paint on)
