Thank you to the people who came to the Grants Pass Museum last week for the printmaking exhibit and my demonstration of viscosity printing with oil based ink. I was amazed at the prints that I created especially because it was hard to see what I was doing. Monoprinting really is a very magical and surprising medium. I do have space available for my monoprinting workshop next week. 
I can work out just about any kind of payment plan for any of my classes and workshops. I want everyone to be able to come and take my classes. Art is good for the soul and my studio is a safe sanctuary to explore and create with a mindful heart.
This is a good idea. This is the right time.

 My schedule includes a new "2 Day Monoprinting" class $195.00 and a "Traveling Altars and Small Books" class (2 days) $80.00. In this class we will decorate Altoid boxes to create little altars that close and travel as well as small books that are fun and easy to make and give as gifts.  
Take care,
Denise
