I taught two classes at the Ink Pad on Saturday. They were brand new classes that I've never taught before and I was a bit nervous. This was also the first time that I brought my full A/V set up (laptop, projector, etc.) Normally I depend on the location to have it, or I simply do without. But I really think it's a better class with the slides and videos. Demos can be very frustrating and this way, everyone has a good view. I do still, of course, do some live demos, but I find people like having the slides too.
First up was Introduction to Art Journaling. This was a technique heavy class. I threw a ton of information, new products, ink, and paint at these ladies and they gobbled it all up. Take a peek:
I had two sets of moms and daughters in the class, which was very fun! I love to craft with my Mom, so it was nice to see that other people do too.
The second class was Paint and Patterned Paper Collage. I wish that we had had another hour for everyone to finish, but a few people managed to get it done. And everyone had a good time. A few students from the morning stayed and took this class too, which was lovely. Here are the pics:
We spent quite a bit of time working on painting a pleasing face and I'm proud to say that the result is so many beautiful ladies!
Thanks for stopping by!

Looks like a couple of great classes! Could either or both be adapted to online for those of us living far away from NYC?
