Arrival on Sunday, 5 day Workshop, Depart Saturday

This will be a week mixed media and a meshing of all your skill sets. Our project is a personal shrine. First, every home needs one. A please to honor and give homage to a memory, person, thought or prayer. We will mix mosaics, beading, painting, collage and more into this master piece. We incorporate ephemera, work 3-D surfaces and cover every nook and cranny of your own shrine built especially for this class. I have specially designed and manafactured nickel silver hearts made for the center pieces for beading. This is an extraordinary project that is so fun to teach since we do so many different skills in our 5 luxurious days together. I provide everything but please bring any special nic-nacs you may want to.
