"Each day has a story to - deserves to be told, because we are made of stories. I mean, scientists say that human beings are made of atoms, but a little bird told me that we are also made of stories." -Eduardo Galeano

 

We all have a story. Using paper, paint, and pen, allow your story to spill out of you. Share your secrets, your knowledge, your dreams, and hopes. Transform paper and paint into something beautiful. 

This work will feed, encourage, and inspire new work. 

It's not about finishing, but discovering, asking questions, and being open to possibility.  

Supplies needed: 

USE WHAT YOU HAVE.

• I'm going to encourage you to work as LARGE as you can (whatever LARGE is to you) on whatever kind of substrate you prefer (I'll be working on a large piece of card stock, which I can fold and tuck into one of my journals)
  
• a handful of your favorite paint colors (I'm using acrylics)
  
• Two or three of your favorite brushes in different sizes/shapes, favorite painting tools, paper towels/rags, plus water in your water bucket
• a couple of your favorite mark making tools (paint markers, pencils, etc...)
  
• collage material: a focal image, background papers, adhesive of choice, dry rag/paper towels, something to glue on, metal ruler/scissors, bone folder (if you have one)
  
  

(I'll send a list of the specifics I use so you have it upon registration. Use what YOU have.)

**Disclaimer: I do not work for or represent any company or brand. The views I share on my favorite tools and brands are from more than 25 years of working hands on with acrylic paints and mixed media supplies. No one pays me to sell their wares nor do I receive any free product. I only recommend what I love and use.

Can't make the live workshop?*

The main part of my workshops are always recorded. Please note: for those who are camera shy, during the main part of the workshop I am pinned and students are muted (but, encouraged to unmute and ask questions!) Additionally, before and after the session, there is time for students to ask questions, share, and engage with each other and me, WHILE NOT BEING RECORDED.

You'll receive a special link and an extensive class handout within 2 days after the workshop ends. You'll also have access to me should you have any questions AFTER the workshop ends.

Remember, enrollment for the live workshop is limited to the first 20 registrants.

 I like to keep the group small so everyone has time to ask questions and share.

Questions? Please email Kelly at EGorey99@sbcglobal.net
