I did two classes in the last couple days, the first one was a watercolor collage workshop in La Quinta, the second one was a Paint and Wine evening in Moreno Valley. Seven people had a lot of fun and created some happy stuff.

The students wanted me and my variation in the pic too.
So, a week after the reception, talk and workshop, I finally get around to uploading pix from the gallery. I have a solo show in the main gallery of 29 Palms Art Gallery through the end of the month – so if you’re in the high desert, stop by if you can! If you think the workshop looks fun (it is****), I run them elsewhere, or can schedule a private one for a group of the right size in Southern California.
This section was difficult to photograph because I’m shooting into the light. Thank you for photoshop!
The workshop is fun for just about any age.
Little ones getting some help. I was glad Kadence’s Mom stayed around, she is not confident of her abilities.
Older ones getting a little guidance too

The last few days I’ve run two watercolor collage fun workshops. All, serendipitously with people who have art experience in other mediums, but thought they would pick up something useful from my workshop, and they did! It’s always fun to work with groups who have open minds as to what they want to achieve, whether or not they have prior creative experience of any kind.
