Dina Wakley August 2015 Workshops

Dina Wakley
returns
August 14-16


One of my favorite guest artists is Dina Wakley.  She has a very relaxed and encouraging style in her teaching that will warm your heart and leave you feeling artistic.  She became a Ranger Signature Designer last year and we love, love, love all her stamps, stencils and paints by Ranger.  Dina brings almost everything you need for class so you only need to bring a very few items.  Join us for one or all of these exciting classes.  You will be glad you did!

We live in a world of different faces.  this class is about celebrating those faces in the crowd, and recording them in an expressive and thoughtful way.  This class is not about making perfect or pretty faces, it's about making distinct faces.  Dina will show you her favorite ways to scribble and draw expressively.  You'll explore various art techniques and learn how to incorporate your drawings into mixed-media pieces to create unified, meaningful art.  You will practice in your journal and then make a large work of art to show off your skills!  There will be an hour and a half break for lunch.
