January Excitement

DONNA  DOWNEY

CLASSES

What's the next best thing to Christmas?  Getting your Christmas wish that Donna Downey would come teach at My Heart's Fancy!  Oh yes, that's what I wished for and it is coming true.....  Donna will be teaching 4 classes here on Friday & Saturday, January 13-14!  What a great way to start 2012....

I know you will want to take all 4 of them....  that's my second wish.  Donna can handle large classes so if we overflow our classroom, we'll just find a larger place to have class (like the empty space next door maybe?)

Donna packs a lot of fun and technique in these classes and here is what she will be teaching for us:

SPECKLED NEST CANVAS

In this fun, whimsical collage/mixed media workshop, you will create an 8x10 piece of original art.  This 2 hour workshop is suitable for beginner and experienced alike.

PAN PASTEL

From the Heart





This 2-1/2 hour workshop is also suitable for beginner and experienced artists.  You will create visual depth using bold color and texture to create this 11x14 canvas mat board mixed-media art piece.  If you have never used PanPastels before, here is your chance to explore and learn a new skill.

INSPIRATION JOURNAL

"Creating a Visual Diary"

This workshop will introduce you to art journaling and will both challenge and encourage you in your artistic quest.  Techniques you will learn in this 3 hour workshop include painted backgrounds, "drippage", image transfer, layering, uses of different mediums & more.

INSPIRATION JOURNAL

"Layered Composition"

If you are ready for the next level in art journaling, this 5 hour indepth workshop is for you.  You will learn even more about building layers using a variety of mediums and materials.  You will also learn to incorporate freehand drawing and about composition and balance.

Classes are open to all who wish to take them and additional information is available by email (myheartsfancy@gmail.com) or by phone (405-509-6788). 

That's it for now..... until next post..... Happy Stampin'!
