Totem Grid Canvas workshop

I just notice that I didn't post my Totem Grid Canvas workshop from earlier this month. I hadn't taught it in a few year so there were a few requests for it. It's one of my all time favourite workshops to teach so I was happy to be doing it again. I love the techniques with texture and all the fun combination of objects people use to finish it off.

Teaching this workshop again has inspired me so much. I see more grid canvases in my future and possibly some interesting variations on this theme.

More fun with texture paste.

Have I mentioned that the Textured Grid Canvas workshop is my favourite workshop right now. Well if I haven't, now you know. I had a great little group of ladies in the studio today with so much creative power. Again some amazing results from this workshop.

I just can't get enough of all these texture pastes. I'm in the process of trying out some more brands of texture paste because apparently if I see it have to buy it. I have a few more coming my way in the near future so I see some new projects happening in my future.

All about the texture paste...



Last weekends workshop was the Grid Canvas. It's all about texture paste. I think it's my favourite workshop to teach this year. I love playing with texture paste and it's so interesting to see the creative variations that my students do. And you know how I'm always saying my students inspire me so much. Well this time was no exception and the canvas above is one I finished a few days later from some of the sample grids I did during class. It's called 'Longing for summer' because that's how I'm feeling right now.
Here are the canvas' of my students that day.

Didn't they do a great job? Just looking at them makes me want to get more paste out and play. But not today, I'm getting ready to teach a Memory Frame necklace workshop at the Goulbourn Museum tomorrow.

Now that you're inspired, the new spring/summer workshop is up on the workshop page. Take a look and let me know what you think. Anything you were hoping to do but is not on the schedule? Let me know. Also I'd love to hear from you about when you like to take workshops. Do you like weekends(Saturday or Sunday), weekday, evenings? Do you like full days, half days or just a few hours for workshops? I've been doing mostly Saturday full days but would really like to hear what you would like most. Thanks ahead for the feedback.

Keep Creating!

Fun with texture paste.

This past weekend was my Grid Canvas workshop and what a fun and creative group of women I had here in the studio. I was just amazed at the works of art that they created. Take a look.

In this workshop, when it comes time to add the embellishments I have many to chose from or the students can bring along some of their own. This time around a few of them used almost all of their own found objects making the project very personal to them. One student used buttons and other elements collected over the years, while another had a  necklace she disassembled to use parts of on her canvas. And a third used one focal element letting the texture stand on its own. 
What do you think? Have you tried playing with texture paste yet?

Happy Creating!
