You guys, Colette was kind enough to nominate me for Art Ed Blog of the Year! I found out today that I have been selected as one of the finalists! Very exciting. If you get a chance, I'd appreciate it if you'd give me your vote (scroll down to the bottom of the page once you click through the link). Thank you!!!

I spent two days teaching my Big Collage class to a group of fabulous students at Jenny Doh's Studio Crescendoh!
This was my fifth year teaching there.
We had an absolutely amazing time making huge mixed media collage art!
The students blew me away with their amazing work!
And I was absolutely delighted to send one of my demo collages home with Leslie:
It was my first time selling a finished work of art. Yay! And that's something I'd like to do more of. People often ask me if I sell my work. I've been too scared to let it go, but one of my goals for 2016 is to start creating and letting go of it. So watch this blog for info on buying original art very soon! I'm working on figuring out the shipping logistics. If anyone has any advice, I'd love to hear it!
So, thanks Santa Ana…
…I had a great time!
If you'd like to take an in-person class with me, check out my schedule here.
Thanks for stopping by!

Please describe your process for collage on canvas. I’ve only worked on paper and wonder how you support the canvas when adhering collage pieces. Love, love, love your work.

I am LOVIN’ the big canvas collages! I would love to take a class from you, but you’ve got to try teaching in the midwest for a change. You know, it’s that huge space between the east coast and the west coast? I know that you’ve had bad experiences with the airlines going to Chicago…maybe you should try Minneapolis instead. It’s a very artsy city (maybe tempt you with the world class theatres too).
