Paper Clay Workshop at Sitka Center for Art and Ecology

What a wonderful workshop we had this week! Sitka Center is the perfect place to gather with others who like making art and learn a new medium. The natural beauty of the area is so inspirational and invigorating. Everyone worked hard and the results were amazing. Such nice clay work and painting. Most are still in progress, with finishing touches to come...but check out this great class work!

Thank you to each and every student for taking my workshop! What a great bunch of people. And thank you Sitka for inviting me to teach in one of the most beautiful art centers on the west coast.

Clay work before painting...



It's all about the attitude...

Meticulous attention to detail...




Then we add a dark color to the recesses...




And painting begins...





Unfinished potential...

Adding bits of paper...

And blushes of color...


With fanciful ideas...

Or just plain monkey business...

Cedar waxwings begin to migrate...

As autumn begins to fall upon us.
