Creating ‘Frida’ inspired work makes you consider the elements you add and how they will tell your story.
Here I used elements found in her work in a new way. I love the little hand earring, but I’m a ‘doer’ so for me the hand had to be doing something.
I’m busy getting ready to head to CA next week to teach at CREATE. I hope to see some of you there:-) I will be doing a book signing June 2nd at 4:30 so be sure to stop by and say hi!
Also Artful Gathering will begin right after I get home on June 6th! This is the only new online workshop for 2012, so if you’re at all interested don’t delay in signing up as registration will close 2 weeks after class opens on the 6th. Many have asked if they can just purchase the DVD and what is on the DVD. The DVD is only available for class attendees and it is the complete set of videos from the workshop! So even if the time of Artful Gathering doesn’t work for you, you can join and download printed materials and get the DVD to go through the workshop when it’s convenient for you.

I’m loving your Frida inspired paintings. Wish I could come to CA but I’ll see you online for your portraits class. Very pleased we can buy the DVD.

Gorgeous sketch! I really like the light and dark of it.

What a wonderful series of sketches and paintings! Love how you always see beyond the obvious and inspire me to try to do so as well. Your earlier portrait classes really challenged me in some truly unexpected ways. Looking back at those pages I wonder where did that come from and did I really do that? So I’ll definitely be there for your Artful Gathering class. Have a great time at CREATE!

I am signed up for your portrait class in Artful Gathering and am SO excited for it! I’d like to purchase the DVD, but can’t figure out where I go to do that. Please let me know. Thanks!
