East, north or south? Take a collage class with me

No time to take a fun class? Depending on where you are and what you need, you and I can pull off the impossible: we can make time for collage this fall.

First option: Sundays at the Kirkland Arts Center. If you live on the Eastside, or you’ve never tried collage before, this is the class for you. From September 18th to November 6th, we’ll experiment with different collage techniques. Registration opened on the 26th, so you can sign up here right now.

Second option: this is the class to sign up for if you’re in the Central District, or if you’re only free for one day. I’ll be teaching a one-day intensive collage class at the Pratt Fine Arts Center on September 24th. Registration will open up in early August.

Third option: if you live further north, good news — I’m also teaching at North Seattle College. This class will be for three Saturdays in a row: November 5th, 12th and 19th. Registration starts on August 8th, so you still have a couple of days left to decide which class to take. But once you do, be quick about signing up — I don’t know how fast the classes will fill up!

What are you doing on Tuesday and Saturday?

When you think of “Tuesday mornings,” I hope you think of me. More to the point — I hope you’ll join me!

Winter quarter at Kirkland Arts Center was so much fun I’ve agreed to teach “Collage On (AND Off) the Wall” again during Spring quarter.

Sign up and you’ll learn how to unite a variety of colors and textures in small collages as well as assemblages. Never heard of “assemblage?” Register here to find out more about this eight-week class. Can’t commit to all eight? Short on time?

I got you: a three-week intensive class on Saturdays. I’m partnering with North Seattle College Continuing Education to teach “Figurative Collage: All in the Family.” In this class, we’ll focus more on creating artworks that center your favorite aunt, grandpa or another relative.

Class sizes at both venues are limited, so now’s the time to get on it and register. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

The plan for 2022

[dusts off laptop] Hey! Didja miss me?

I missed you… but I had some serious thinking to do about my blog. Not everyone needs a weekly update, so I’m gonna do a few things differently in 2022.

  • You’ll still hear about the big art news: If you follow me on social media, you know I stayed busy with speaking engagements, commissions and media interviews, in the midst of making new work. I’ll keep updating you as things come up.

  • But not every week: I’m just going to post about said events and shows as they happen, or are scheduled. So you might hear from me on a Wednesday and a Friday, or maybe just on Tuesday. The best way to get details: sign up for newsletter posts on my home page.

  • When I work with friends and partners: During the first half of 2022, I get to collaborate on a public art project with old and new friends! I’m also leading collage art workshops at the Kirkland Arts Center, as well as North Seattle College in the spring.

First up is my “Collage, Off AND On the Wall” class. Ask me for details: I’m send them directly to your inbox in the next post. Looking forward to 2022 with you!
