3 Workshops @ Art & Soul

—$225 +kit fee each

When:  2027 July 21, 22 & 23
Where: Phoenix, AZ

I am offering THREE different day long workshops all about utilizing UWS goods… in collage, in assemblage, in fiber arts, and most of all MIXED MEDIA!

Tinned Stitches : a fishy stitching day where we’ll make lots of little sardines & alter a chipboard sardine can for them to live in. Come ready to mix textiles, colors & patterns to create a delightful fibery school of fish. We’ll utilize both machine stitching & handstitching to bring our fish friends to life. The sardine can they live in is a chipboard construct that we’ll build, alter, age and fit with a replica sardine label. 

Marauder’s Pocket : a trinket making, object altering, dimensional collage & small bag making workshop. We’ll utilize your & my favorite dimensional altering mixed media techniques to create little baubles of goodness, all housed in a handmade distressed & stitched bag. If it’s collagey & scrappy & fits in the palm of your hand, it goes in the bag! We’ll work on different substrate types like wood, shell, paper & more. We’ll utilize mixed media techniques like collage, stitching, assemblage, small resin casting +more to make between a handful & a dozen little baubles any Marauder would be happy to collect & carry around. 

Rooted Rolodex : A buildable chipboard rolodex box & shaped rolodex cards with a nature theme. Think bringing your flat art journal to life in a dimensional, flip-throughable, roloDex box full of textures and imagery heavy in vintage flora & fauna. Flights of birds & pretty bugs. Leaves, roots, the soil. The sky & trees, clouds. We’ll be inspired by all things mother nature to fill this box with dimensional life.
