Art Is....You Dixie - Tennessee/Mississippi

Hi Everyone!!!

Wow, Art Is….You Dixie is just around the corner and the line-up of teachers, classes and extras is amazing!!!!  I will be teaching several classes and I am so excited about them that I thought I would share a bit about the classes, the location and what else you won’t want to miss out on!!

If you have never taken a class with me I need to let you know that they are chock full of techniques to add to your creative toolbox.  I love to share the tips and tricks that I have learned along the way so you can see those tools and supplies in a new light and get re-energized in you creativity!!  J

So, on to Dixie, which by the way will be held in Olive Branch, Mississippi…..

The first class I will be teaching is how to make beautiful little shadowbox shrines using vintage imagery and my organic style of soldering.  These can be created to stand or to wear……

That Thursday evening I will be teaching a classed called Micalicious in which we will be creating the most amazing “banners” using panels of collaged, adorned, embellished and sewn mica.  These are beautiful hung in your home or studio and the translucency of the mica is stunning and fits right in with the vintage feel

 

That Friday, in The Crowning Touch, we will be using some of our found objects, metal and soldering to create a unique, one of a kind, mixed media crown/tiara.

 

On Saturday we will be creating to our hearts desire in my Sacred Hearts class.  We will be creating several different styles of hearts to adorn you or your home/studio while also learning some very cool techniques including transfers, metal stamping, organic soldering and creating patina.

 

 

On Sunday it will be all about the romance in my Romancing The Tin class!!  We will be altering a tin using some really cool techniques, including transfers, and we will be creating the little booklet that will be housed inside the tin.  The little booklet can serve as a journal, it could be a vintage lace sampler or it could have pages of your favorite inspirational quotes.

    
    

 

The Art Is You Dixie event will be held in Olive Branch, Mississippi (on the border of Mississippi and Tennessee) at the Whispering Woods Hotel.  It promises to be an amazing setting for coming together with like minded creative souls and it is just 30 minutes away from downtown Memphis if you want to visit Graceland, Beale Street or some of their amazing museums!!! 

There will be all sorts of extracurriculars to enjoy as well!!!  Eat Cake & Create, The Trunk Show (the amazing vendor night), group lunches and much, much more!!!!

So, click the below image to be taken to the Art Is….You Dixie Event page to read and learn all about this magical event….

 I hope you will come and enjoy this amazing event and join the Art Is You Family!!!!  Sal and Ellen put on such a wonderful and memorable retreat that you will never leave disappointed!!!!

I would love to have you come and spend time with me in one of my classes!! 

Xoxo,
