Zentangles - Intermediate #22
Tuesday, September 2nd / 6:30 - 8:30
Instructor: Patti Euler
Class fee: $22
Zentangle is an easy to learn and relaxing method of creating beautiful images from repetitive patterns. In this
class, you will build on what you learned in Zentangle Basics. Patti has planned four intermediate classes in which
you will learn eight new 'tangles in each session (for a total of 64 'tangles!). (It isn't necessary to take the
intermediate level classes in any order.) Your 'tangles will be more complex and you will focus in this class on
breaking down each 'tangle you create. Paper will be supplied; however, you must bring your Zentangle Starter Kit
(included in the introductory class).

Ever wonder what to do with all those paper scraps that you just CAN'T throw away? Join us for a fun and exciting
afternoon as we bring back one of our most popular classes...Paper Mosaics, where bits of paper become
beautiful works of art. This technique was created by our good friend and local artist Sue Newton and is designed
for beginning students as well as experienced artists. Using paper, fibers, glue, stamps, embossing powders, and
other trimmings you will create beautiful mosaic pieces that can be used for cards, journals, scrapbooks, boxes,
and framed art. Come into the shop to see the beautiful samples. The possibilities are endless! Go home with a
small framed masterpiece to keep for yourself or give to a special person.

Think about what stories you'll be able to record. Don't blame the Queen if you fall hopelessly into Gelli Plate love
after this class! (Don't have a plate? No worries, one will be provided for classroom use). Terry will bring lots of
samples for inspiration, and you'll have plenty of time to experiment with lots of layers! Class size limited to 12

in our workshop repertoire. Learn about the various paper types and other surfaces used for stamping and paper
arts, explore the wide variety of inks, including a little chemistry lesson about their make-ups, which ink to use on
which surface, which to emboss or heat-set (or not!), and see various papercrafting tools in action. You'll discuss
adhesives... the importance of selecting the right one for your project, and take the opportunity to use a few
different ones. Get your hands a little bit dirty as you have the opportunity to play with some of these inks, papers,
and adhesives, and try your hand at heat embossing with stunning results.

some specialty stamping paper... all of which you will take home! Receive a 10 percent discount on any

50 Shades of Play - The Sequel
September 21st [Sunday] / 12:00 - 5:00
Instructor: Terry Quinn
Class fee: $48.00
So... you have taken the 50 Shades of Play workshop, and are now a certified Gelli Plate addict. Or, maybe you
haven't taken the class, but you have your own plate, know the basics and have done some experimenting. You're
obsessed with making prints. Perhaps by chance, your workspace is exploding with prints and you're wondering
what I do with all of them. Well, within each print is a beautiful, abstract work of art just waiting to be revealed. In
50 Shades of Play "The Sequel", we'll make several prints with the Gelli Plate and then experiment with
composition and elements of design to transform the prints into mini works of art. In this class you will complete at
least three one-of-a-kind cards, an EcoBoard print and a matted 5x7" print along with a stash of several prints to
make more cards at home. You may even be tempted to frame your cards and display them as the miniature works
of art that they are. See website for student supply list.

In this workshop, you will create lusciously layered mixed media collages, elegantly displayed in 5x7" clip frames.

Be prepared to play, experiment, and let your imagination run wild as you create a plethora of background "sheets"
that will make up the foundation of your collage. To create your sheets, you'll experiment with different surfaces,
and combine monoprinting and resist techniques with stamping, stencils, rubbing plates, watercolors, crayons,
markers, glitter, mica, metal leaf, and paint. You will learn techniques using Dura-lar Wet Media Film (provided in

alternative, specially coated on both sides to accept water-based mediums, markers and inks without beading,
chipping or running.) See website for complete student supply list.
